Iran Press/Europe: The protesters again called for Zakzaki's release of prison, chanting slogans in support of the Sheik.
Nigerian President Muhammad Buhari's office on Sunday banned the country's Islamic Movement activities and announced it as a terrorist organization.
Sheikh Zakzaki reacted to the Nigerian government's actions and said that conspiracies to ban Nigeria's Islamic Movement activities have been underway since 2015, so such an order is not odd, Iran Press reported.
Sheikh Zakzaky has been held in detention since December 2015, when the army killed hundreds of his followers at his compound and a nearby mosque and burial ground in northern Kaduna state.
It is while in 2016, Nigeria’s federal high court ordered his unconditional release from jail following a trial, but the government has so far refused to set him free.
Meanwhile, the Nigerian government's restrictions against the Islamic movement has enhanced.
