Concise News reports that the PDP spokesman made this known in the evening of Sunday, February 24, via Twitter. He tweets: “Nigerians and the world over should know this— Alhaji Buba Galadima has just been kidnapped by masked security operatives, his whereabouts is unknown. “Buhari/APC are hell-bent on destroying our hard earned democracy. “We will never be cowed, the will of the people MUST prevail.”
The news of the alleged arrest is coming shortly after the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council called for immediate arrest of Buba Galadima.
In a statement on Sunday, February 24, the APC campaign council accused Galadima of plotting to announce Atiku Abubakar, PDP presidential candidate, as the winner of the presidential election.
The campaign council claimed Galadima had recorded a short video to this effect while acting on behalf of the PDP as its campaign spokesman. It also claimed the opposition party is plotting to mobilise “hoodlums” for nationwide protests.
However, it is still unclear whether the alleged arrest was at the instance of the APC campaign’s statement.
