Shia students stormed the Human Rights Commission, Kano to press for the release of Shiite leader Zakzaky and students remanded in Kano prison.
They were pictured with placards with various inscriptions while chanting “Zakzaky is in our hearts”.
“We will keep on protesting until our leader is set free”-protesting students at NHRC Kano say as they all chanted free Zakzaky and remanded students”.
It could be recalled that El-Zakzaky was arrested on December 5, 2015, after a clash between troops attached to the convoy of the chief of army staff and members of the Shiite group.
He has since been in detention with his wife Zainab.
