- A group has asked the Amnesty international to quit the country with 7 days
- Failure to do this, the group vowed to go into the streets protesting the presence of the international group in Nigeria
-
The group also insisted that Nigerians could no longer accept the
deliberate act of sabotage and indirect compromise of national security
by Amnesty International
Amnesty International
has been asked to leave Nigeria over their ‘unfavourable’ report about
Nigeria’s security agencies by a human rights advocacy group.
The group under the aegis of the
save humanity advocacy center, gave Amnesty International a seven-day
ultimatum to immediately vacate the country claiming that Nigerians have
had enough of their “absurdity and evil machinations.”
Comrade
Ibrahim Abubakar, the group’s executive secretary while addressing a
press conference in Abuja yesterday said failure to quit the country at
the expiration of the ultimatum will result to street protest,
Leadership reports.
Abubakar insisted
that Nigerians could no longer accept the deliberate act of sabotage and
indirect compromise of national security by Amnesty International
He said: “To this end, we are
opening a register of protests in our office to collect the signatures
of Nigerians, who are resentful to the destructive activities of Amnesty
International as well as their dubious reports of hate and espionage on
Nigerian soil. And failure of Amnesty International to respond to this
plea as stipulated, they would incur the wrath of Nigerians, who would
have no option than occupy Nigeria on the streets, until government
compels Amnesty International to leave the country.”
According
to him, the latest report of Amnesty International which alleged human
rights violations against the Nigerian military and other arms of
security in combating acts of terrorism, separatism and extremism in the
country is another indication of the organization’s continued quest to
undermine Nigeria’s security.
He said: “we
are worried and indeed, sad to notice that each time peace and normalcy
is returning to these troubled parts of the country, Amnesty
International, an international human rights body mindlessly punctures
the essence of this peace by cooking up baseless reports that
maliciously indict and disparage efforts of the Nigerian security
architecture, by alleging unsubstantiated human rights violations.
“We have noticed that each
time Amnesty International wail for criminal gangs or terrorists in
released reports, Boko Haram terrorists crude and barbaric attacks,
including slitting the throats of captives with knives, gain momentum
and the tempo of violent insurrections also heightens in the country.
