Nigerian human right activist Reno Omokri has explained that his group decided to temporarily suspended the #HarassBuhariOutofLondon protest to allow President Muhammadu Buhari “rest” to “observe his Islamic fast in peace.”
The group had staged and sustained the protest demanding the president who is in London to “return home and fix the comatose health system in Nigeria.”
While explaining that the suspension was a humane thing to do for love of God and humanity, Omokri called on Omoyele Sowore’s #BuhariMustGo group, who have periodically been holding a separate protest to also consider granting concession on humanitarian grounds.
He however warned that “if Buhari makes an attempt to see his London doctors during this period, we will consider this a breach of our truce and resume the protests.
“As long as Buhari does not breach this, I believe we should respect the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, not because of Buhari, but because of our love for the Muslim ummah”.
