Africa Press-Nigeria:<\/p>\n
Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina has revealed that he has been receiving curses from Nigerians through phone calls and text messages over a false report that he advised his principal to shun protesters.<\/p>\n
Apparently, under pressure, Adesina stated in an article he wrote titled: \u201cAn Enemy of the People\u2019 published on Thursday evening.<\/p>\n
\ufffcAdesina denied that he advised President Buhari for whatever reasons on the End SARS protesters, but said an online platform falsely accused him that he told Buhari to \u201cignore the protests and not give in to the demands of \u2018Twitter warriors\u2019.<\/p>\n
He explained that his telephone numbers were posted on social media, thereby, making people to reach out to him with curses.<\/p>\n
Adesina said a long time interview he granted Channels Television regarding the \u201cRevolution Now\u201d, was twisted to make it look like a fresh interview against End SARS protest, a situation that made more attacks on him ferocious.<\/p>\n
According to him, relief came his way when Channels Television gave a clarification.<\/p>\n
In his article: \u201cThose who wanted to, believe the television station. A large number chose not to, and bombarded my phone lines with curses, expletives, and messages from the pit of hell. Well, if anybody chooses to belong to that nether region, it\u2019s a matter of choice.<\/p>\n
