The Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) is a religious organization that promotes the teachings of Shia Islam. Founded in the late 1970s by Ibrahim Zakzaky, the movement seeks to address social justice issues and advocate for the rights of Muslims in Nigeria. It has gained a significant following, particularly among the youth, and emphasizes the importance of Islamic governance. The IMN has been involved in various protests and demonstrations, often calling for the release of its leader, who has faced legal challenges and imprisonment. The movement's activities have sometimes led to clashes with Nigerian security forces, raising concerns about human rights and religious freedom in the country.
