Deji Adeyanju, who is also a part of Concerned Nigeria, who have been staging a sitout in support of Shiites’ leader and Shiites said they have been going to the National Human Rights Commission to complain of various violations of their rights; many of which the Commission felt they over amplified according to him. Deji says they have been visiting and making complains in the last two years.
So today, they went with the corpse of a citizen, Ahmed who was allegedly killed by the Police and to make maters worse, they were also attacked by the Police in their presence, Deji claimed.

He also claimed the police shot five people dead right in front of the National Human Rights Commission including two women. ”They threw many of the tear-gas even inside Human Rights Commission. How can we call this a democracy? #FreeZakzaky” , Deji tweeted. Continue below to see more photos and read more of his tweets too.

FLASH: We have yet again come under serious attack by Buhariana Police in front of National Human Rights Commission. We are in a military regime. NEVER AGAIN

UPDATE: In the last 2yrs, @ConcernedNIG & Shiites have gone to the NHRC to complain of various violations of our rights; many of which the Commission felt we over amplified. So today, we went with the corpse of citizen AHMED, killed by Police & we were attacked in their presence

The ATTACK on us by Buhariana Police right in front of Human Rights Commission was completely unprovoked

LIVE UPDATES: #Freezakzaky Protest at National Human Rights Commission now. Buhari killed citizen AHMED for protesting the unlawful detention of Zakzaky and his wife. Protest is a Human Rights.

We say NEVER AGAIN

How can a democratically elected government kill citizen Ahmad Rufa’i Dodo for protesting for the freedom of a man Court ask to be freed over a year ago? Buhari is a tyrant. We are taking the dead body of AHMED to National Human Rights Commission now. COME AND KILL US

The Buhariana Police were shooting tear-gas directly at us. What kind of provocation is this? I spent over 30mins calming down Shiites today but they have vowed to fight back because of the level of intimidation. How do you shot tear-gas at Women, Children then a dear body?

Buhariana Police shot 5 people today right in front of the National Human Rights Commission including 2 women. They threw many of the tear-gas even inside Human Rights Commission. How can we call this a democracy? #FreeZakzaky

We were seriously attacked thereafter by Buhariana Police and live bullets were fired at peaceful protesters. Many injured. How can you even attack Nigerians in front of Human Rights Commission? The level of impunity of this government is unthinkable. #FreeZakzaky
