A statement by the group’s spokesman, Ibrahim Musa, said Mr. El-Zakzaky was visited by the contact committee of National Supreme Council of Islamic Affairs, NSCIA on Wednesday.
“On Wednesday 13th January, 2016 some members of the contact committee set up by the NSCIA visited Sheikh Ibraheem Yaqoub Zakzaky, leader of the Islamic Movement, who is incarcerated by the federal government since 14th December, 2015.
“According to a member of the committee, Prof. Dahiru Yahya, they met the Sheikh and his wife, Sister Zeenah Ibraheem, in Abuja, and are all recuperating from the bullet wounds they sustained during the army’s attack on the Islamic Movement in Zaria.
