There is a genocide of innocent civilians going on in Zamfara state, North-West Nigeria. Since President Buhari took power in 2015, close to 5000 innocent Nigerians brutally slaughtered by armed bandits in Zamfara state.

The Buhari regime has refused to do anything to protect these innocent and defenseless Nigerians. As I write 40+ people were brutally slaughtered in Zamfara state.

The armed bandits not only kill their victims, they abduct women and girls and convert them to their sex slaves. They collect tax from villagers as protection money and they kidnap people for ransom. They move freely Heavily-armed with no opposition from security forces.

Zamfara state is among the most backward states in Nigeria. Human Rights activists are almost none existence in Zamfara state, thus the enlightenment of these massacres are sketchy. Despite all these killings in Zamfara state, have you ever see Twitter Storm against these killings in Zamfara state? The Governor is clueless and irresponsible. Your citizens are killed almost on daily basis and you are silent.

When some activists protested and raised awareness of the Zamfara killings, President Buhari sent just one thousand Soldiers. Yes, just one thousand! But if it is to rig election in Ekiti and Osun states Buhari will sent 50,000 security personnel.

The leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky, once said that Zamfara state is rich in Gold and other important mineral resources. There is a hidden plot to de-populate Zamfara state. Today there are Thousands of Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) within and outside Zamfara state. Nigerians that fled their homes due to threats of these bandits.

We call on the international community and Human Rights organizations to put pressure on the Buhari regime to protect the innocent and defenseless civilians in Zamfara state. The Minister of Defense is from Zamfara state but what occupy him is to coordinate the Saudi-sponsored #ShiaGenocide in Nigeria. He is the link of President Buhari and the Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman. While murderous bandits are killing innocent Nigerians in Zamfara state, these paid Saudi agents are planning the next Shia massacre and how to perpetuate the illegal detention of Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky.
