The United State Diplomatic Mission To Nigeria has released a statement
on the the violent clash between Nigerian Army and the Islamic Movement
of Nigeria. The statement below:
"The United States is deeply concerned by reports of violent clashes
between members of the Nigerian Army and the Shiite group Islamic
Movement of Nigeria in Zaria, Kaduna State over the past several days.
While many details of the incidents that reportedly
began on December 12 remain unclear, we are dismayed to learn of
multiple civilian deaths. It is essential that all sides refrain from
actions that further destabilize the situation.
The United States calls on the Government of Nigeria to quickly,
credibly, and transparently investigate these events in Zaria and hold
to account any individuals found to have committed crimes."
