SHIITES IGNORE POLICE WARNING HOLDS PROCESSION

The Secretary of the Movement Academic Forum, Abdullahi Musa, alleged  that there were shootings in various States where the protests held, noting that Ashura procession marks the tenth day of the first month in the Islamic calendar.

 “We held the protest in Abuja and it has ended peacefully because the police did not meet us before it ended. But in Kaduna I understand that three people were killed when security tried to stop our members. There were also shootings in Lela, Sokoto state, Azare in Bauchi state and in Katsina state too, where the protest was held. They used teargas to disperse our members.”
