Atiku Calls for Immediate Release or Trial of Sheikh Sani Khalifa Zaria.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has called on security authorities to either immediately release Sheikh Sani Khalifa Zaria or bring him to court without further delay, citing concerns over his continued detention without court authorization — an act Atiku described as a violation of human rights and a serious breach of the nation’s constitution.

Atiku noted that Sheikh Khalifa, a religious scholar from Kaduna State, has been in detention since December 2025 over alleged involvement in a purported coup plot, yet no formal charges have been filed against him in court.

He stated that prolonged detention without court presentation raises serious concerns about the rule of law and human rights in the country, emphasizing that no authority is above the Constitution.

Atiku also expressed concern over Sheikh Khalifa being held without access to his family, lawyers, or adequate medical care, calling such treatment a breach of the law and citizens’ rights.

He further warned that detention without trial could undermine the foundations of democracy in Nigeria and urged authorities to comply with court orders to ensure justice is served.
