Amnesty International has prepared a report of about 13 problems of Nigeria that could destroy our country soon! According to the organization these problems are:
1. Boko Haram
The terrorists are continuing to commit crimes against humanity in Nigeria, killing thousands of civilians.
2. Security forces
The military committed war crimes and possible crimes against humanity too. The source stresses that Buhari promised to investigate evidence of several instances of war crimes by the military between June and December, however, no further action was taken to initiate independent and impartial investigations.
3. Internally displaced people
According to the estimates of the International Organization for Migration over 2.1 million people were internally displaced in northern Nigeria and 92% of them lived in host communities.
4. Excessive use of force
For example, on 12-13 December, the military reportedly killed hundreds of members of the Shi’a Islamic Movement of Nigeria, in Zaria, Kaduna state
. 5. Communal violence
Violence between ethnic groups continued to claim lives.
6. Justice system
Amnesty International explains: “Prisons remained overcrowded and court processes slow; frequent strikes by court employees, such as court clerks, over pay and the consequent closure of courts led to delays in trials and the supervision of pre-trial detention.”
7. Torture and other ill-treatment
The experts report that torture and other ill-treatment by police and military remained pervasive.
8. Death penalty
Amnesty stresses that the authorities continued to sentence people to death. No executions were known to have been carried out.
9. Housing rights Mass forced evictions continued.
10. Rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people
“The rights of LGBTI people continued to be curtailed. Human rights defenders reported a significant increase in the number of arrests of LGBTI people and of police extortion,” Amnesty explains.
