Protesters numbering over 100 under the Civil Rights Group, stormed the Abuja office of Amnesty International over allegations to destabilise Nigeria.
Addressing newsmen at the protest, the coordinator, Mr. Danesi Momoh, said the decision of Amnesty International to only base its report on 2015-2018 was suspicious. They accused the organization of attempting to destabilize the country with the false reports and promised to continue the protest until they are made to leave the country.
“This is the beginning. We will continue to occupy Amnesty International until it gets out of our country. With the tenacity the Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) has shown in its bid to destroy Nigeria, we will not pull back like we did the last time. We have had enough of its destabilizing lies and we say Amnesty International must leave now”,he said.
He further went on to assure the government of proof of the illicit dealings of the organization saying that the Civil Rights Groups were willing to provide legal assistance to the government prosecution team to secure convictions of those that have used doctored reports, to strengthen Boko Haram in the country saying that the organization was being funded by enemies of peace who wish for disintegration in the country.
“This confirms that whoever is financing its operations in Nigeria is angry that the tide was turned against their Boko Haram agents since the current political and military leadership took over the helms of affairs in 2015.
“It is sickening that Amnesty International can now be using its report to praise the dark era when cities as far south as Kogi State were under siege from Boko Haram terrorists.
Momoh, therefore, urged the Federal Government to consider the request of Civil Society Organizations made last year for Amnesty international to be kicked out of Nigeria.
