The video of self-confessed killer promising President Bola Tinubu of victory in the 2027 General Elections has gone viral and attracted mixed reactions from netizens.
NPO Reported that the suspected thug who was identified by his colleagues as Shawama had in the video admitted to killing 32 people in Ibadan, Oyo state’s capital.
Speaking in Yoruba, the suspected killer recounted how him and his gang had come under attack and he single-handedly killed 32 people with the police and soldiers hailing him while allowing him to go after the incident.
“When they wanted to kill us in Ibadan, we changed it for them. I killed 32.
“Police and soldier saw me and said I should be going home that I’ve tried.” He said.
While being hailed for his feat, the thug and his colleagues declared their support for President Bola Tinubu’s 2027 re-election bid.
The video had prompted a statement from the Oyo Police Command which vowed to investigate the claim and bring the self-confessed killer to book alongside his gang.
However, netizens had also taken to their X handle to react to the video with some linking the thugs with the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“If this is even remotely true, then we don’t just have a security problem, we have a system problem. The real question is: who is protecting who? Answer : APC”@Rainer__r
“This is not the Nigeria we want. No society can thrive where violence is normalized and accountability is absent. What kind of future are we leaving for the next generation? APC enough is enough.”@Omobalogun29
“For someone to be emboldened enough to say he k!lled 32 people & the police freed him and told him he really tried…. I believe the appropriate authority need to look into this.”@Simplylily_HQ
“In a working country with law that is working, this kind of person should have been awaiting execution or already neutralised due to his actions But here in Nigeria it seems that everything goes if you have the right connection. 32 plus people unalived just for nothing.”@Nd_Urch
“Does it means there’s no law in this country or the law are made for the poor? How can someone openly say this just like that nothing still happens”@oyibodonatus
“There’s nothing surprising about this. These same thugs will be given 20k each and then sent to wreak havoc during the elections. People like these, unfortunately, do not deserve to be in normal society with others”@GumGumDes
“Sometimes I ask myself if we are really in the same country, because the reality Nigerians are facing today is very different from what some people are defending online. With the level of hardship, insecurity, and suffering going on, you would expect everyone to demand better”@Ogiekasim1
“How does Tinubu sleep at night with all these happening in his name and control. Does Tinubu know he will one day appear before God to give account of his deeds? Oh God, any power or position that would lead me to directly or indirectly take a life, please don’t bring it to me”@chijoke_david
“There are likely more murder3rs in APC than there are in prison/jail. This is one such proof.”@swot_saz
“His saying this jst to put fear on the people, where was he when fulani is running crazy in that state? Ok we will see if he can come and put him in aso rock come 2027 himself.This is it when u fear them, they will have their way and still kill u at the end. Standup people”@AmejaGabriel
