A media aide of Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State, Salihu Tanko-Yakasai, is currently in the custody of the Department of State Security (DSS) after calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to tender his resignation, in the wake of a spate of abductions targeting school students.
Yakasai, who tweets with the handle @Dawisu, had criticized his own political party, APC, after news broke that 317 students had been kidnapped by terrorists in Zamfara on Friday, February 26, 2021.
Yakasai never holds back from laying into the APC and President Buhari on his Twitter page.
In October of 2020, Yakasai was suspended by Governor Ganduje for criticizing Buhari's handling of the nationwide #EndSARS protests against police brutality.
