Former Aviation Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode has warned the President Muhammadu Buhari administration against radicalising members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) by the constant onslaught of the military against the group.
Since the December 2015 clash between the IMN members popularly known as Shiites and Nigerian Army personnel which left hundreds of the group’s members dead, many more have died in skirmishes with the Army.
The group have had cause to clash with the military several times over the continued detention of its leader, Sheikh Ibrahim El-Zakzaky and one of his wives, Zinat, despite several courts ordering their release on bail.
No less than five members of the group were shot dead by the military in clashes in Abuja on October 30.
According to Fani-Kayode, “Buhari is pushing the Shiite Muslims down the road of militancy and insurgency by slaughtering them in their thousands for no just cause.

“If he continues to do so they will eventually form their own local version of Hezbollah and fight back. That, coupled with a strengthened and ever confident Sunni Boko Haram and ISWA army waging war against the Nigerian people would be too much for our nation to bear.
“If Buhari comes back in 2019 Nigeria may be saddled with the greatest conflict between Shiite and Sunni Muslims in world history.
“Millions would die and the Nigerian state would crumble into a thousand pieces. Buhari is divisive and destructive.
“He is a danger to Nigerian unity and to the Nigerian state. If we wish to restore peace and unity to our land the first step we must take is to get him out of power.”
