Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Media practitioner, Yushau Shuaib has narrated how Daily Nigerian publisher, Jaafar Jaafar fled Nigeria after the viral dollar video showing Kano Governor Abdullahi Ganduje.<\/p>\n

The Editor-in-Chief of PRNigeria made a Facebook post at the weekend after visiting Jaafar who is in exile in London, United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

Shuaib noted that the journalist was forced to leave his fatherland after suffering a series of political harassments and security threats.<\/p>\n

The former National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) spokesman recalled seeing off Jaafar to the airport as he flew out about a year ago.<\/p>\n

\u201cA few days before Jaafar Jaafar left, I visited him in Kano where he showed me CCTV footage of strange movements around his residence.<\/p>\n

\u201cLess than 24 hours after, similar movements were noticed in his Abuja residence. Later he received security invitations over frivolous allegations.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very happy to visit his family in their safe abode one year after today. We discussed power failure, petrol scarcity, ASUU strike etc,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Shuaib said Jaafar wished Nigeria could be better so that everyone would be proud of safety and prosperity.<\/p>\n

In a chat with DAILY POST, Jaafar confirmed he quietly travelled out of the country because he had been marked for elimination.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very sorry that I could not inform my colleagues, friends and family. The situation at that time did not permit any disclosure\u201d, he explained.<\/p>\n

The publisher and his family were granted an emergency entry into the UK due to the severity of the intimidation.<\/p>\n

In an interview with BBC Hausa in March 2021, Ganduje disclosed they were planning to deal with persons who released the videos that sparked outrage.<\/p>\n

Jaafar then wrote a petition to the former Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu on the renewed threats to his life.<\/p>\n

In April 2021, the police invited him for questioning bordering on \u201ccriminal conspiracy, defamation, injurious falsehood and inciting violence\u201d.<\/p>\n

The letter signed by ACP A. A. Elleman demanded his appearance appear on Monday, April 19, 2021, \u201cto shed more light on the allegation\u201d.<\/p>\n

But after receiving intelligence that he would be incarcerated for \u201cdaring to expose a sitting governor\u201d, Jaafar fled Nigeria from a secret location.<\/p>\n
