24-year old Aminu Mohammed, the final year student of the Federal University, Dutse, who was dealt with by First Lady, Aisha Buhari, over an irresponsible post on her, is not a first time provocative tweeter.
The tweet on Mrs Buhari where Aminu said Mrs Buhari was feeding fat on the money meant for the masses, and attached two different pictures of the First Lady to show her looks before her husband came into office, and her looks now, is not the first time he would post such controversial provocative tweet.
Months ago, when Deborah a third year student of the Federal College of Education, Sokoto was stoned by her colleagues in the campus, and set ablaze till she died, the gruesome murder had sparked an outrage in Nigeria and beyond. But not to Aminu Mohammed.
He applauded the manner of Deborah’s murder, and mocked her in death. He had tweeted and posted a tee-shirt which bore Deborah’s photograph, and wrote: “Murderd by peace.” But he tweeted under the Tee-shirt, in Hausa Language: “Duk Wanda yasa wanna Riga ah Bauchi sai munchi uwarsa,” meaning: (“Whoever wears this shirt in Bauchi will be dealt with….. SEVERELY.)
In the heat of her problem with the First Lady, his tweet on Deborah was dug out. The result: A number of those who condemned Mrs Buhari, and asked for his immediate release, have made a u-turn.
They want Aminu punished. They want him tried. One of them said that Aminu should be sent to jail and from there go to hell.
Another wished him the same fate which befell Deborah. Yet, another apologised for pleading on his behalf and concluded: “The rascal idiot does not deserve sympathy or mercy.”
But the u-turn comes late.
Bowing to pressure, on Friday, Mrs Buhari said she has forgiven Aminu, and has withdrawn the Court case she instituted against the student.
