70-Year-Old Man Arrested For Insulting President Buhari says it was out of Anger

I Spoke Out Of Anger After Bandits Killed My Family, Rustled 15 Cows –70-year-old Man Arrested For Insulting President Buhari


A
70-year-old man, Lawal Izala, arrested for allegedly insulting
President Muhammadu Buhari, has said that he spoke out of anger when he
visited his village and found out that bandits had killed his family
members and rustled 15 of his cows.

The police had on Thursday
paraded Izala and two others for insulting President Buhari and Governor
Aminu Masari of Katsina State in a viral video.

He said, “I was
coming back from my village where my 15 cattle were rustled and my
family members killed. I was passing by when I was asked about how life
was going on for me.

“Then I said, our leaders, Buhari and Masari
have failed us. I then threw insults out of anger from my agony. I did
not even know I was being recorded on video.

“I was just saying
my mind with all honesty. It was after the video went viral that I was
arrested by the police. I was accused of committing a crime under Penal
Code.”

SaharaReporters gathered that many communities in Katsina
State have been sacked by gunmen, who killed wantonly and roamed around
with audacity in the last two weeks.

Meanwhile, the trio have remained in police custody without an option of bail.
