Nigerians Attacks Garba Shehu For Saying Senator Abaribe Should Be Jailed Because Of Nnamdi Kanu

Presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu has come under heavy fire on social media over a reply to Senator Eyinnaya Abaribe who called for resignation of President Muhammadu Buhari over an alleged increase in the spate of insecurity in the country.

After Senator Abaribe had called for Buhari’s immediate resignation over the rising spate of insecurity in the country, Garba Shehu described the call as foolish.

Shehu said it was the senator that was supposed to resign from his position and replace the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu in Correctional Service for facilitating the escape of the IPOB leader.

The presidential aide said it was Abaribe who signed the bond for the court to release Nnamdi Kanu on bail after which the IPOB leader disappeared from the country.

He added that Abaribe is supposed to replace Kanu in jail, having failed to produce him many times in court in line with the bail bond he signed.

Garba Shehu’s statement has sparked a lot of outrage and below are some reactions on Twitter:
