Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has disowned the statement made on his social media handles condemning the murder of a female student of the Shehu Shagari College of Education by religious fanatics for alleged blasphemy.
The presidential aspirant’s social media handles on Facebook and Twitter had described the killing of Deborah Yakubu as unjustifiable.
However, religious fanatics immediately responded below the statements with abuse and threat not to vote for him in the forthcoming elections.
The statements were pulled down about an hour afterwards.
Atiku has now gone a step further to state that he was not the one who made the statement.
He wrote: “This evening I received information that a post was made that doesn’t agree with my orders. I use this to announce that any post without AA is not from me. May God protect – AA”
