Statement by IIDN on the execution of humanitarian worker, Hauwa Mohammed Liman / by Chiamaka Mogo

The Initiative for Inclusive Dialogue in Nigeria (IIDN) is deeply saddened by the execution of Hauwa Mohammed Liman, by the Boko Haram terrorist group. Words truly fail us at this tragedy. Hauwa was a dedicated humanitarian and healthcare worker in Rann, Borno state. Our thoughts are with her family, friends, colleagues and all who join in mourning this devastating loss.

Humanitarian workers have continued to be targets of Boko Haram. This is unacceptable. IIDN strongly appeals to the Borno state government and to the federal government of Nigeria, to prioritize safety for the people of Borno. No Nigerian and no humanitarian worker in Nigeria deserves to live a life in fear of senseless attacks.

IIDN remembers Hauwa Mohammed Liman and we wish support and healing, to all who mourn this tragic loss. 

Signed,

The Initiative for Inclusive Dialogue in Nigeria
