Release Boko Haram Members, Kwankwaso Urges Security Agencies by Nugwax(m): 6:10pm On Aug 31, 2011 |
The security agencies should as a matter of urgency release all members of the Yusifiyya Movement better known as Boko Haram and other members of various religious groups arrested in Kano and elsewhere in the country in the interest of peace, Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso said in Kano yesterday. Kwankwaso told newsmen after granting unconditional pardon to 20 prisoners in the state that there was no justification whatsoever for the continued detention of members of the religious sect. The governor said the state government was surprised about the story, which was published in Sunday Trust edition of August 28, 2011, on the purported arrest of members of the said group at the instance of his government and the emirate council. He said at no time did the state government ever authorize any security agency to arrest or detain any member of any religious group. “As a government, we consider all Islamic and Christian religious sects the same. It is the duty of government to embrace all religious groups toward peaceful coexistence among citizens”, he said. The governor also said contrary assertion, the state government was unaware of the alleged arrest of any member of any religious group, and neither did the state government order the detention of members of the Islamist group. “But if there is any member of the sect in detention, I am hereby calling on the security agencies to either release or charge such persons to court within the time stipulated by the constitution,” he said. He said every religious follower practices his or her religion in Kano without any harassment or molestation from his government, the emirate council or even the people of the state, saying this is why Kano is so conducive for all the different believers who have been historically living peacefully with one another. http://dailytrust.dailytrust.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=26785:release-boko-haram-members-kwankwaso-urges-security-agencies&catid=2:lead-stories&Itemid=8 |
