Mixed reactions have trailed reports that leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, IMN, sheik Ibraheem El-Zakzaky and wife have abruptly ended their medical trip to India and have arrived Nigeria.
Channels Television reports the Islamic cleric and wife have hit the Nnamdi Azikiwe international airport, Abuja from the Indian city of Dehli.
A kaduna High Court had about a week ago given the detained shiites leader and wife permission to travel for medical treatment. But after a few days in India El-Zakzaky reportedly lamented poor condition in India – which he described as “worse than Nigeria”.
Their return the country earlier than expected is thought to be connected to the concerns the Shiites leader raised on Wednesday through an audio tape.
Reacting, Nigerians on social media have expressed diverse opinions regarding their sudden return.
