Hawzah News Agency (Kaduna, Nigeria) – Police and security forces have used live ammunition in another brutal attack on peaceful worshippers in Kaduna on 23 August 2020 which resulted in 3 deaths and many serious injuries. This is another brutal attack to target the Islamic Movement, attacking those taking part in Muharram ceremonies.
The funds will be used for the urgent medical costs of those injured and the families of those affected by the ongoing violence.
Violence from the authorities has also resulted in catastrophic and life-changing injuries for many people protesting against the government's cruelty. Lack of funds means that even when there is the hope of recovery, medical treatment is unavailable for victims.
This includes injuries from bullets, knife attacks, baton charging, tear-gassing, and other forms of physical violence resulting in:
Temporary and permanent paralysis
Blindness and sight injuries
Amputations
Broken bones
Torn ligaments
Internal injuries
We need your support to provide:
Medical treatment to alleviate and heal those injuries including access to local doctors or specialist treatment in Nigeria or abroad for the more complex injuries. This can cost anywhere between £1000 - £3000 to treat injuries caused by gunshot wounds.
Medical equipment like crutches and wheelchairs cost between £150 - £700.
Monthly food packages for families of those killed or imprisoned costs the UK£70 / month or £840 for the whole year.
