The global organisation, at the weekend in Maiduguri, presented messages of solidarity from its members and supporters and other well-wishers to the widows of the over 2,000 suspects who have continued to fight, under an umbrella group called Knifar Women, for justice to their detained husbands.
The presentation was facilitated by a Maiduguri-based NGO, Allamin Foundation.
“There are a lot of unanswered questions about the continued detention of these men,” Osai Ojigho, the Country Director of Amnesty International Nigeria, argued, querying, “where are they detained? How many of them have died? In fact, why has the insurgency persisted for 20 years now?”
She noted that Amnesty International had been calling for justice for everyone that had suffered various forms injustice during the period of the Boko Haram insurgency, and it had discovered the enormity of the effect of the insurgency on the fabric of family life characterised by the separation of people from their family members.
“This is the story of the Knifar Women who have suffered untold hardships, including seeing their children die of hunger following their separation with their husbands,” Ojigho said.
Receiving some of the messages on behalf of the wives of the detained husbands, Fatima Bukar said “our husbands are innocent,” pleading with the public to continue fighting with them until justice is done to their husbands.
“We know the truth and we will continue to fight for it,” Yakura Hajja, who received some if the messages, said, arguing, “our husbands are innocent,” alleging, “ they (security agencies) detain those innocent and release culprits; we will never relent in our fight for justice for our husbands.”
