SSS Secretly Arrests Nigerian Student For Insulting Aisha Buhari.

A student of the Federal University of Dutse has been detained by the State Security Service over a social media post that was considered defamatory of Nigeria’s First Lady Aisha Buhari.

The student, Aminu Adamu Muhammed said on Twitter in June that Mrs. Buhari had suddenly gained a lot of weight after partaking in the plundering of the country’s limited resources as the citizens suffered under the terrible rule of her husband.

Mr. Muhammad criticized Ms. Buhari in a tweet on June 8, 2022, writing in Hausa, “Su mama anchi kudin talkawa ankoshi”, which could be translated as “the mother has gotten fatter by eating masses’ money.”

According to Mr. Muhammad’s friends, he wrote the article as a result of his frustration with the country’s universities’ protracted strike.

According to a family source, Mr. Muhammed, 23, was apprehended by police from the Federal University Dutse, Jigawa campus on November 8. The student was reportedly severely beaten by the police after being taken into custody at around noon.

He was immediately transferred to Abuja and given a limited window of time to speak with his father Adamu Shalele Azare about where he was, which the family mistook for a police station.

Later, it was revealed that Mr. Muhammad’s detention was orchestrated by the State Security Service (SSS).

Donald Duke Raises Alarm On His Childhood Photo Being Used In A Documentary As Young Bola Tinubu.

Donald Duke, a former governor of Cross River State, asserted that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the APC presidential candidate, was portrayed as a youngster using his photograph in a number of documentaries.

Duke revealed this to editors at a recent roundtable in Lagos that was organized by the Front Fort Media Initiative and the MacArthur Foundation.

APC supporters and their media staff had previously produced several documentaries to tidy up the image of their presidential candidate in an effort to put to rest the numerous concerns surrounding Tinubu’s origin and presidential candidacy.

The documentaries that were broadcast on TVC a few months ago and were posted on several YouTube channels, used a ton of images and videos to portray Tinubu’s life story, political rise, and accomplishments.

A specific black-and-white image of a little boy wearing dark sunglasses, sitting down, and holding his hands together was identified in the video as Bola Tinubu when he was a young boy.

However, Duke asserted that the boy depicted in the documentaries as “young Tinubu” was actually him and not Tinubu. He also claimed that he was 12 years old when he took the photo.

He said, “The picture of the boy used as Bola Tinubu in all the documentaries is me. I am the boy in the picture, not Tinubu as they claimed in their documentaries. That photo was taken when I was 12 years old during my school years at the Federal Government College Sokoto, in Sokoto state.”
