Soldiers Dehumanize Passengers Traveling To South East, HURIWA Tells CDS, Service Chiefs

The Human Rights Writers Association (HURIWA) has alleged that for over five years, passengers travelling through military roadblocks in South East Nigeria have been subjected to degrading, dehumanizing, and disgusting treatment.

HURIWA urged the Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Gwabin Musa, and the Service Chiefs “to immediately activate pragmatic mechanisms to stamp out all sorts of dehumanising treatments being meted out to travellers in the Southeast region by operatives of security services manning roadblocks.”
