The group said this while turning down a White Paper by the State government on the 2015 clash between the sect and the army in Zaria.

El-Rufia had constituted a Judicial Commission of Inquiry headed by Justice Mohammed Garba to find out the possible causes of the clash which reportedly left 347 shi’ites dead.

Investigations by the commission had justified the killings and labelled the sect as an “insurgent group”.

But in a press conference yesterday, Sheikh Abdulhamid Bello of the Shuhada Foundation, who spoke on behalf of the sect rejected the White Paper.

Bello said the submission was a clear indication that El-Rufai did not want peace in the state.

According to him, the governor would “lead Kaduna State and Nigeria into an avoidable religious crisis and conflict.

He added, “it is clear to us the governor of Kaduna State is a threat to national security and the peace and stability of Kaduna State and Nigeria.

“We are convinced that the governor of Kaduna State is bent on creating an atmosphere of fear, anxiety and violence in Kaduna State for reasons that are unclear through his approach to governance.”
