Amnesty International has said that at least 10,000 people have died in military custody since the Boko Haram conflict in North-east Nigeria began.
Speaking at a press conference on Thursday, the Country Director of the human rights organisation, Malam Isa Sunusi, said they were in Maiduguri to remind the government of the need for justice.
He said that the organisation had filed a case before the International Court of Justice at Hague over alleged crimes against humanity in the North-east region.
Sunusi called on the Nigerian government to do the right thing by providing justice, ensure that all the atrocities are addressed and help them to rebuild their lives.
