Why this petition matters

Started by Mukhtar Yusuf

In recent weeks, there have been series of coordinated attacks on Muslims in Nigeria (especially the Hausa community), places of worship and their investments in the southern region that is predominantly populated by Igbo Christians. Many of these attacks, unfortunately, have gone unreported by Amnesty Nigeria.

Investigations carried out showed that, dozens of Muslims have been identified and confirmed dead in oyigbo Rivers State yet amnesty gave a blind eye even after thousands of people tried calling their attention to it.

On Saturday 31st, the popular Orlu Central mosque in Imo state was set on fire by suspected members of the proscribed group – Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), who hid under the guise of #EndSARS protests to wreak havoc on Muslims.

During the attack which lasted for two days (between Tuesday and Wednesday, October 20 and 21), one Muslim was killed and four others, including the Mosque’s Assistant Imam, sustained various degrees of injuries, yet amnesty Nigeria did not utter a single word about unlike the Lekki toll gate shootings that have enjoyed their unprecedented reportage

Conclusively, Amnesty Nigeria have been acting as if they were funded to defend other causes against Islam and the #Muslims If not, why have they not responded to the cries of the oppressors who have been tagging them, notifying them about the killings of Muslims in Orlu and Oyigbo PH?

Therefore, we are calling for the immediate overhaul of Amnesty Nigeria in other to ensure Justice and avoidance of this inhuman and biased action in the near future.
