here have been reports about the wife of the leader of IMN, Malama, testing positive for COVID-19. Are you aware of the current state of her health and that of her husband?
I wouldn’t say I’m not, neither will I say I am because yesterday (Tuesday January 26, 2020), the only surviving son issued a statement that apart from COVID-19, which she contracted in the correctional centre, she has some underlying health challenges, which would require special attention as well.
Despite being proscribed by both the Kaduna State and Federal Government, members of the outlawed Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) have staged a protest to demand the release of their embattled leader, Sheik Ibrahim El-Zakzaky from detention.
Holding flag with different inscriptions on Wednesday, the IMN members marched along the popular Ahmadu Bello way down to Leventis roundabout, contrary to the ban on their activities by the Kaduna State Government.
The group is demanding the immediate release of El-Zakzaky, his wife, and other members of the IMN who are being detained in various parts of the country.
They argued that a court of competent jurisdiction had already ordered the release of the IMN leader, and therefore, wondered why the government cannot abide by the court order.
