PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH
The anti-violence speech by Nigeria’s President Buhari at the UN was deeply ironic - Quartz Africa Reports
In his address to the United Nations General Assembly yesterday (Sept. 19), Nigeria’s president Muhammadu Buhari touched on one of the world’s most pressing human rights issues: the brutal violence against Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar.
“The international community cannot remain silent and not condemn the horrendous suffering” of Rohingya Muslims, Buhari said of the “desperate human rights” situation. While his comments will appeal to Rohingyas, many Nigerians will be wondering why he doesn’t practice similar sentiments with similar events back home.

Back in Dec. 2015, months after Buhari took office, a skirmish between Nigeria’s military and the members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, a Shiite Muslim group in Nigeria’s north saw “more than 350 people,” including women and children, unlawfully killed according to Amnesty International, the human rights group.
