El-Zakzaky could die at any moment – says daughter

1 Min Read

Suhaila, daughter of Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN), has said the level of led poisoning in her father’s body could result in his death.

“I am really worried… especially because of the lead and cadmium poisoning,” El-Zakzaky’s daughter told BBC in an interview.

“His doctors say if he gets to a certain level his organs could start failing and that’s really scary because that means he could just die at any moment.”

Suhaila lamented the heavy presence of security operatives at the Medanta Hospital, New Delhi, where he is for treatment.

Recall that El-Zakzaky had on Monday left Nigeria for India on Monday following the medical leave that a Kaduna high court granted him.

But on Wednesday, El-Zakzaky raised the alarm that the situation in India was worse than Nigeria. He had said he was denied access to his preferred doctors while security operatives were caging him.

The federal government has since dismissed the cleric’s claim, accusing him of behaving uncontrollably.
