The Nigerian Navy has released a Naval officer and Instagram Comedian, Abdulgafar Ahmad, popularly known as Cute Abiola, after two weeks in detention over a post he published on social media.
KanyiDaily recalls that Cute Abiola had been declared missing by his wife and friends after leaving his house for the office at Navy Town at about 6 am on Monday, November 15, and got to the office at about 7 am.
The Navy later announced Cute Abiola wasn’t missing but was detained for contravening the military laws by posting a video of himself in military uniform on social media, an act which is said to be in violation of the armed forces’ social media policy.
After two weeks in detention, the Naval spokesperson, Commodore Suleman Dahun, confirmed on Friday, December 3, that Cute Abiola is no longer in the naval detention as he has been released to serve his punishment, Punch reports.
The naval spokesman maintained that Ahmad knowingly violated the armed forces’ social media policy but was given a punishment after he was tried for misconduct and indiscipline.
KanyiDaily had also reported how Police arrested a comedian, Augustine Valentine, popularly known as `MC Fine’, for allegedly spreading fake news on Facebook.
