Islamic Supreme Council of Zambia (ICZ) has condemned the continuous havoc by Boko Haram against innocent people in Nigeria.

ISCZ President, Suzyo Zimba, says it is unfortunate that the suspected Islamist militant group, Boko Haram, has continued to cause terror among the local people in Nigeria.

Mr Zimba said in an interview with ZANIS that the Nigerian government need to seriously dialogue with the terrorists in order to find a lasting solution.

He said it is disastrous that clashes have persisted between Boko Haram militants and the Nigerian government forces resulting in deaths of innocent citizens.

Mr Zimba said there is need for concerted efforts by world leaders in order to bring sanity in North-east Nigeria where the Boko Haram has been causing havoc.

The recent abduction of school girls follows fights between Nigerian soldiers and Boko Haram militants resulting in 50 rebels being killed as the Nigerian military repelled an attack on its military base.

Six Nigerian soldiers, including the commanding officer, died during the clash.

More than 200 school girls who were abducted in April are still being held captive by Boko Haram militants who seek to establish a fundamental Islamic state in the country’s North.

Meanwhile, about 60 girls and women kidnapped in North-east Nigeria last month, have reportedly fled their captors.

The ISCZ has been instrumental in spearheading peace and unity among religions in Zambia.

  1. These Muslims in Zambia must be watched closely. They have a long term strategy, converting unsuspecting Zambians into muslims. Next stage, they will demand more rights in the constitution and finally, they will start talking of a muslim state. Watch these people closely or else we are too fragile to contain them once they are fully fledged and declare jihad on Zambian soil.

  2. In fact this people must be banned from operating in a christian nation like zambia.Look at the havoc they have caused in the following countries
    1.Kenya
    2.Nigeria
    3.Mali
    4.Somalia
    6.Tanzania
    7.Egypt
    8.Algeria
    9.Central Africa Republic
    10.Afghanistan
    11Pakistani
    12.India
    13Syria
    14.Iraq
    15Yemen
    And the superpower America inclusive.This people have no peace in thier bible

  3. LET US CALL A SPADE A SPADE.
    ISLAM IS A RELIGION OF VIOLENCE.
    BOKO HARAM, ALQAEDA, AL-SHABAAB, HIZBUL ISLAM. ALL THESE ISLAMIC GROUPS HAVE ONE THING IN COMMON. THEY ARE ASSOCIATED WITH BLOOD SHED, DEATH, GUNS, SUICIDE BOMBING, MASS KILLING OF PEOPLE. THEY CARRY THE KORAN IN ONE HAND AND THE BLOOD-STAINED AK-47 RIFLE IN THE OTHER HAND.
    IS THERE PEACE WITH ISLAM? ALL THIS IS DONE IN THE NAME OF THEIR GOD ALLA. WHY IS ISLAM ASSOCIATED WITH VIOLENCE? THEY ONLY TALK ABOUT PEACE IF YOU ARE ALSO A MOSLEM. IF NOT, THEN YOU ARE AN INFIDILE, AND MUST BE KILLED.
    IF THE CHILDREN COMING OUT OF YOUR HOME END UP BECOMING CRIMINALS AND MURDERERS, THEN THEY HAVE LEARNT ALL THESE VICES FROM YOUR TEACHINGS. THERE MUST BE A STRONG TEACHING OF VIOLENCE IN ISLAM WHICH THE WORLD MUST RESIST.

    • If you know all this why allow them in your country? Sooner of later Zambian ladies will be forced to circumcize “amalepe”

  4. I FEAR ISLAM. I FEAR FOR MY CHILDREN. WHENEVER I THINK OF ISLAM, I THINK OF BLOOD SHED AND DEATH AND PEOPLE WITH MAIMED LIMBS. I THINK OF A MAN CARRYING HIS QUARAN IN ONE HAND AND A BLOOD STAINED AK-47 IN THE OTHER HAND WITH A MASK ON HIS FACE WEARING BOMBS ON HIS BODY SHOUTING “ALLAHU AKBAR”

  5. Corrupt as some of the Government officials are. They will turn a blind eye to the growth of Islam in Zambia. What was the Moslem cleric doing in Zambia a few months ago? It was claimed he was on peace mission.

  6. Birds of the same feathers flock together. Never give those guys places to build mosques in Zambia, please, please! There are no peaceful Muslims.
