MESSAGE OF SUPPORT TO OUR BROTHER INKINANE AG ATTAHER
Message of support to our brother Inkinnane Ag Attaher. Today, I address my brother Inkinane Ag Attaher, unjustly arrested by the Nigerien authorities, as well as our dignified and upright people despite the ordeal. My brother, know that you are not alone. Your fight is our fight. Your suffering is ours.
I ask you to remain strong, patient, and confident, because nothing lasts forever, neither injustice nor chains. The oppressors can imprison you, but they cannot lock you up or extinguish the light you have sown. Arresting Inkinane Ag Attaher is like stopping education, silencing the voice of health, trying to extinguish the fire of development in the desert.
But what they don’t understand is that a man like him never disappears. Even in prison, his work continues to speak for him. He educated children, cared for the sick, and brought hope to regions forgotten by the entire world. He built an entire generation, and this generation will follow in his footsteps. They can stop him, but they cannot erase his traces. For a man like Inkinane leaves not only memories, he leaves a lasting mark, a mission, a vision.
To the entire world, I say this: if you doubt the greatness of our brother, look at history. All those who have left their mark on humanity were treated the same way before the truth came out. Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years for dreaming of an egalitarian world. Cheikh Ahmadou Bamba, Omar al-Mokhtar, Patrice Lumumba, Malcolm X, and so many others were all persecuted for refusing injustice.
Prison does not discredit a man of principle; it consecrates him. It does not weaken him; it reveals him. Yes, our brother Inkinane Ag Attaher is a hero of his people, a builder of the future. History will remember his name, and his fight will continue, because just ideas never die.
To you, my brother, I say: hold on. Chains break, truth triumphs, and the righteous always shine in the end, Insha’Allah. May Allah protect His servant with eternal mercy and under your eternal protection, Allahou m’amine.
