launched online..
Maikori, 41, was rearrested on Friday and taken into custody in Kaduna after he honoured an invitation by the Nigerian Police Force Headquarters in Abuja.
Maikori was arrested following a Facebook post on the Southern Kaduna killings which he later retracted after it turned out the details of the post were inaccurate.
Despite apologising and retracting the post, the Police went ahead to arrest him.
The Kaduna State governor Malam Nasir El-Rufai recently stated that Maikori was granted bail and would soon be made to face trial.
Maikori has been taken to Kaduna State where he is expected to be arraigned soon.
*It is a pity that this has happened but this is a big lesson that we should all learn from - that our social media is a powerful weapon....The Law does not work in Nigeria and the governor seems to be out to teach a bitter lesson.
Nice move, dey beta hurry n free him, 2 dish out our political worry now on SM needs 2nd tots
ReplyDeleteNot good at all... El rufao wch way na??? U said worst
DeleteThis hell rufai is a coward. He said worst fallacious lies against Jonathan and nobody arrested him. Now he's feeling so pained for just this tiny one. Idiot that used his 2 sons as sacrifice just to because of desperation to become a governor. Catch me if you can bastard. Free Audu idiot hell rufai.
ReplyDelete"Audi" ko, Benz Ni.
ReplyDeleteI supported him till I read the facebook post that got him in trouble.
ReplyDeleteHe made a DETAILED facebook post that turned out to me 100% false. Sure, people lie, but this is no ordinary lie. Yall should just go read the FB post from top to bottom and you'll see why.
It will be difficult for him to argue his move was not political. Besides, all he has to do is point to who gave him such false information. If he can't do that, then it's safe to say he conjured the fake, propaganda news himself. This leaves him at the mercy of the prosecutors. His best bet is to beg for them to take pity on him.
The quote on the meme is making his case worse. Everyone is entitled to free speech, YES, but your free speech has to be the truth and non libellous, otherwise, you'll learn than everyone deserves to prosecute anyone that uses the free speech excuse to perpetuate insult, incite violence and promote falsehood.
He has apologized already
DeleteWhat more does El rufai want.
Can you just shut up you El-rufai puppet, when El-rufai was saying all those malicious and treasonable lies against a seating President (GEJ) why was he not arrested?
DeleteI still maintain, this is democracy and freedom of speech is very well allowed.
So once someone apologize, then there is no offense?
DeletePlease share your home address let's rape you and then apologize. Nonsense!
Do you guys know what incitement does, do you know how many could have died due to that false Facebook post?
When #FreeAudu was trending, why weren't they demanding for the release of the driver and the Vanguard reporter that were detained. Aren't they humans too?
All this elites trying to do as if the law is not for them is pure nonsense. That you have a platform and fan base is no reason to peddle falsehood that could lead to someones death.
I understand there are some comments that are inciting especially when u are a public figure but he has already retracted them , apologized!
ReplyDeleteWhat exactly do they want??!?
The fact that somebody apologised for armed robbery or kidnap does not mean he will not be prosecuted...ignorance of the law is not an excuse. Nigerians like bringing sentiments into everything, never objective for once.
Delete*sips codeine and lights weed*
OMG! This guy is not feeling fine please.
ReplyDeleteBut I guess he was feeling fine when his fingers were itching him. Now that his 140 characters has landed him in trouble, he is not now feeling fine? #ignorance of the law is not an excuse #no place for sentiments when it comes to the Law
Delete*sips codeine, lights weed*
Codeine and weed? That's some very hard drugs.... NDLEA looking for you already.
Delete😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅. funny anonymous
DeleteThis is crazy that this kind of intimidation still exist in this country.
ReplyDeleteOne of doze tinz of beeing a komon Nigirian.
ReplyDelete.... Em dun see whu em go use jeck na bekos pawa no dey im side.
Stella, he was proving James bond when they told him not to publish the fake news which he thought was true. He went ahead and did it . I am from southern Kaduna but let me tell you out our are like tonto dikeh, very vindictive and like to cry alot but we we get problem. If the law was to be working in Nigeria, el-rufai would have been arrested too. But no law. Now el-rufai wants to use the law to deal with him. Its all political and not religious but people don't seem to understand. Southern Kaduna no like elrufai so his trying to pin down all their vocal men that will challenge him 2019.... I don't have time to fight for any rich man. They are not accessible when you need their help but will disturb you when police just invite u......munafakai kawai
ReplyDelete*people are like*
Delete*When police just invite them*
El_rufai pls don't u ever near Niger delta area cos u won't go back free, cos of wat u are cursing in Nigeria, foolish short man devil
ReplyDeleteIf an armed robber was caught while robbing and he apologized, will the law still be expected to take its course or not?
ReplyDeleteIs apology an excuse from prosecution?
#Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life*
ReplyDeleteAll that ElRufai wants to do is to bring down all the southern Kaduna people he thinks will oppose him in the next election. ElRufai is the elder brother to Lucifer
DeleteOverzealous stunts led Audi to this embarrassment.
ReplyDeleteGod please intervene.
I love Audi and his thought process. Aaarrrggghhh!
El rufai seems to be vindictive. Short people,fear them.
ReplyDeleteEl rufai seems to be vindictive. Short people,fear them.
ReplyDeleteI used to admire thi El-Rurai when he was FCT Minister. He seemed to have changed now
ReplyDeleteSo spreading false news is a right of speech? Some Nigerians are truly dumb.Very soon we'll start asking the police to release robbers or kidnappers who have social media friends.Nonsense.
ReplyDeleteI used to admire this El-Rufai when he was FCT minister. He seemed to have completely changed now.
ReplyDeleteStella has any arrest been made over the southern kaduna issue.
ReplyDeleteSlot of killings happened in southern kahuna I just surprised at why Audu should be the target here. And he later realized. One thing I keep saying if apc used the power of social media in their favor during the last election why should ordinary citizen an indigin of a state not do same although he later apologized. So the government of the day wants to silence her citizens. No waaaaay.
Stella I've read many stories which some people come out and say its false you weren't arrested rather you tender apology and move on. What false speech are they talking about sef when politicians are the father of liars. Sorry Audu you'll be fine by God's grace
Some people are so ignorant,talking about libel. Who did Audu commit libel against? Please free the man already !
ReplyDeleteSTELLA, just yesterday, it was reported that about 10 people were "KILLED" by FULANI CATLE HEARDSMEN" it was also reporteed that another 6 people were " KILLED" last week by the same fulani men all in Benue State.this scenario has been happening in other states like Enugu, Ebonyi, Delta, etc, the most horrific , is that taking place in Southern Kaduna. No single Fulani killer has been arrested , tried and convicted since this senselessness killings started, the question here is "are they above the law" ? The answer is NO, I want to state here that NO ETHNIC GROUP IS BIGGER THAN NIGERIA!!!
ReplyDeleteNo single KILLER Fulani heardsman has ever been, tried and convicted in Nigeria for MURDER ,yet , for speaking out Maikori is arrested, Yoruba, Igbo and other ethnic groups in Nigeria, I pray that u receive sense.
"FULNI HEARDSMEN ARE SO WICKED" to the extent that they will invade your farms, and kill You if you make a noise.
"THIS MUST STOP" it is time to start speaking out,
A friend of mine LOST OVER N70M WORTH OF RICE FARM (100 hectares of rice ) TO THIS FULANI MEN, he arrested them and they were later released, we must speak out cos " ENOUGH IS ENOUGH" .
Once u arrest any of them, they will defended by the Fulanis in the Police , miyetialla and their politician, to the extent that, the case will be turned against you the petitioner.
Why I feel the NEED to write this is cos, when u push a man to the wall, he will turn back and react. If other ethnic groups decide to carry guns as the fulani people are carrying guns upandown inside the bush, Nigeri will catch fire. I have so much to say but let me leave it at this point for now.
If only El-Rufai can put this energy into Christian Kaduna killings
