Zaria Massacre: They killed my husband and six children

- Zainab Abdullahi Abbas's wife

Ibrahim, a recent graduate; Muhammed, a sophomore student at ABU; Ahmed, also a sophomore at Federal College of Education, Zaria; Abdulrahman, who graduated from an Arabic school in Kano; Abass, a secondary school student in Kaduna; and Jawad, who was awaiting admission when he was killed

All six were trapped at the residence of El-Zakzaky on Sunday, Dec. 13, 2015. Their father had been in Abuja when he heard the news of the attack by the military. He then left his workplace to solidarise with other followers of Shaikh Zakzaky. 

“As my husband was coming from Abuja, he went straight to Mallam El-Zakzaky’s house and he was shot dead immediately he got to the scene,” Zainab wept while speaking. 


For Zainab, the death of her family members as Shaikh Zakzaky followes was a noble sacrifice, and while “they all died as heroes … the soldiers were the cowards.”
