Police have reportedly teargassed members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria aka Shi'ites that are currently staging a protest in Kano over the continued detention of their leader, Ibrahim El-Zakzaky in DSS custody. The same protest is also holding in Gombe state. More photos from the protest after the cut.

Police and their coward behaviour,they should pack all of them.

these foolish muslims are on the streets killing themselves while their elites and leaders are enjoying themselves in their mansions to the detriment of the foolish ones. the earlier this muslims know they are been brainwashed the better for them. may Alah help them

I dont condone violence, but this Shi'a folks are somehow crazy. If a more liberal state like Kaduna, can hunt down Shi'a folks and take them off the street with brutal force. How on earth would you try this nonsense in an overwhelming Conservative state like Kano. Get your facts straight, the vast majority of Nigerian Muslims are Sunni (More than 90℅), and it not a hidden fact that the Sunni population hate the Shi'a ideology. For your safety stop exposing your members to hardship. Confine yourselves to your dominated areas. Trying to preach about Shi'a ideology on the street is Not safe.

They should stop endangering the lives of these innocent children. Ban Religion in Nigeria now!!!!!

I thought the first three to comment will use their brains but it's like they are still charging it

Why teargas them? When did our constitution ban non violent protests?

Nigeria is becoming a failed state by the day if nothing is done about it

Buhari talk say e go wipe this fifu and he is really doing it.

when I hear someone call Islam a religion of ~peace~ piss

Wow only in Nigeria police teargas harmless kids protesting

we ipob go report bubu and buratai to TOMPOLO,sorry I mean PA Trump

Na dem sabi....make dem no wise up for naija mata....believe FELA...Pastor and Mallam/Imam living large while followers dey H

Shebi we don deal with dem 4 kaduna now na kano remain

lemme just park and watch

These peaceful protests will soon degenerate into full blown violence

This is getting too much as well, but why is Elzakzaky still in detention?

Confused fellows...learn to obey the law get..a lawyer charge the case to court and prove he is innocent.

Religion is for those who don't have any hope of going to heaven.

Christ only came to save, but never brought religion.

ok

The Saudis are Sunnis,
The Iranians are Shittes,
Both countries are doing fine with infrastructures


Why are Nigerians bothered?

Catholic,deeper live,redeemed,living faith, all different doctrine but they're all Christians and they all believe in Jesus
shia and Sunnis are all Muslims with different doctrine,and they believe in Mohammed, so I see no why the Sunnis should hate the shia this much, we all have freedom of worship.

Ok

The continued detention of the leader of Shiite movement and the continued protests by his followers, is a looming catastrophe! Buhari caused this and he wants to plunge this nation into the mercy of another terror group.

What do you expect from a President who takes sides with certain sects, groups, denominations, religions,etc? He's a known tribalist, fanatic,etc.

Wetin concern me self, they should enjoy what they voted in as president.

On Monday? This is serious

Buhari don cage so many people sha. For he mind he know wetin him dey do..
