He said that the Nigerian army killed three of his siblings during last week’s attack on their residence in Zaria.

Ibraheem said that his three brothers Hammad, 17, Ali, 15, and Humaid, 13, were all shot dead in front of their father during the raid by the army last week.

“But I call to all those who care that, we must continue with our peaceful protests, however and whenever we can. Just as we have been doing for over the last 30 years, and as long as we breathe, I hope that we will continue to do so,”  Zakzaky’s son said. “We will continue to protest in order to demand our right to bury our dead properly, to tend to our wounded and to see to the health of our leader, my father.”

“Then comes our property which has either been destroyed or fenced by looters under the watch of the Nigerian army,” he said.

He added that “I will continue to demand unbiased, impartial justice, for my six brothers, for as long as I breathe.”
