Northern Nigerian politician celebrates Kyari’s death, says Nigeria is free
The Kano State Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Muazu Magaji, has celebrated the death of the Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, Abba Kyari.
While celebrating Kyari’s death on his Facebook page on Saturday April 18, 2020, Magaji stated that the country has now gained freedom.
The commissioner, who decried the deceased in a series of Facebook posts on Saturday morning, had previously wished Mr. Kyari did not return as Chief of Staff to the President after testing positive for Covid-19 a few weeks ago.
The commissioner, who was sworn-in as commissioner on November 5, 2019, is notable for his ‘negative reactions’ against his political opponents on social media.
On a number of occasions, his reactions have sparked fierce criticisms from his social media followers.
In one of his posts on Facebook, Mr Magaji prayed for the repose of the deceased but added that, “Win win… Nigeria is free and Abba kyari ya mutu a cikin annoba… Mutuwar shahada in Har da Imani mutum ya cika!”
In another post, he said, “You can’t change history…. You are who you are, and what you do define who you are…. dead or alive!”
