Civil rights advocacy group, Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA), yesterday, slammed the administration of  President Muhammadu Buhari (retd), for lack of transparency in the alleged release of over 100 Boko terrorists from Kirikiri Medium Security Prison, Lagos State.

HURIWA’s National Coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko, in a statement, said the alleged clandestine overnight release of the inmates again showed alleged complicity of Buhari’s nepotistic regime.

Commenting, HURIWA’s Onwubiko said: “Nigerians are shocked at the latest antics of the regime of President Muhammadu in the reported release of over 100 Boko Haram terrorists from the Kirikiri prison. It shows the total absence of transparency and accountability in the fight on terror.

“The secrecy behind the intermittent releases of terrorists under different guises by the current government is abysmal and anti-people and illegal.“HURIWA calls on the government to come clean on the release of the Kirikiri inmates”.
