PDP Chieftain Remanded in Prison for Insulting Buhari
PDP Chieftain has been Remanded in Prison for Insulting Buhari, SGF on Facebook.
GoldenNewsNg gathered that the suspended PDP youth leader was said to have taken to his Facebook page to condemn the insecurity in the area following recent attacks by suspected Boko Haram members.
The youth leader identified as Ikama Kato reportedly called out the SGF and Buhari for failing to secure the lives of residents in a viral video.
He labelled the SGF “a disappointment and a failure” just as he described the two leaders as “useless men” in power.
Ikama Kato suspension from the PDP
Following the development, the Hong chapter of the PDP suspended Kato for using vulgar language.
The party chapter reportedly said it frowned on his vituperations against the SGF, a renowned figure from the council.
Shortly after his suspension by the PDP, a remorseful Kato made another video and apologised.
Group drags PDP chieftain court
Despite his apology, a group named Adamawa Concerned Citizens led by Hussain Gambo, a supporter of the SGF, dragged Kato before a magistrate’s court.
The group’s leadership said it took the decision to serve as a deterrent to those using social media to slander responsible Nigerians.
The Chief Magistrate, Dimas Gwama, who took the plea of the accused, ordered him to be remanded in prison till Monday, August 2.
Meanwhile, GoldenNewsNg gathered that the asylum application of Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Igboho, will be determined by the Benin Republic court this week.
One of the lawyers of the activist in the Benin Republic, Ibrahim Salami, while speaking on the development noted that the charges against Igboho would be neutralised if the activist is granted asylum.
