Solomon Akuma: Again, court denies Benue pharmacist who threatened to kill Buhari bail
Solomon Akuma, the young pharmacist who has been abducted and detained at the Force Criminal Investigation Department, Abuja, for a year for allegedly threatening President Muhammadu Buhari, has been denied bail at Federal High Court, Abuja.
The 29-year-old was arrested for tweeting, “Pay a Russian Sniper to eliminate Buhari and Abba Kyari”, in reply to a certain tweet by a popular Twitter user, Tunde Omotoye, who had earlier tweeted, “$1,000,000 hits your account. Your next move?”.
It was an obvious Akuma’s tweet was a joke which the average Nigerian Twitter user would refer to as ‘banter’ – a word used in describing comments deliberately made by any Twitter user with an intent to draw online traffic and spur online discussion or Twitter trends.
