A manhunt has been launched by the Nigerian Police, for the reporter who shared of the Inspector General of Police, IGP Ibrahim Idris struggling to read his speech at the inauguration of the Police Technical Intelligence Unit in Kano, Kano State on Monday, which has been trending with #transmission.
Liberty Television journalist, Aminu Nurudeen, who is believed to have posted the viral video of IGP Ibrahim Idris, has reportedly gone into hiding, as Punch gathered that the Kano State Police Command invited the reporter to its office immediately the video went viral.
Nurudeen’s whereabouts had been unknown since the Kano State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Musa Magaji Majiya, invited him on Thursday.
Authorities are upset with the journalist because he had allegedly disobeyed a directive by the Kano State Police Command to journalists present at the event not to report the IG’s blunder or make the video public.
In a part of the transcription of the footage, Idris said, “I mean, transmission, I mean effort, that the transmission cooperation to transmission, I mean transmission to have effect, ehm, apprehend, I mean, apprehensive towards the recommendation, recommended formation effective and effect, I mean, apprehensive at the transmission of…and transmission and transmission for the effective in the police command.”
Sources revealed that IGP Ibrahim Idris, who was embarrassed by the trending video reportedly ordered an investigation into its release.
In a chat with Punch, a source said, “He (the IGP) has however ordered an investigation into the leakage of the video but we are watching to see how he intends to deal with the individuals behind the viral video without further embarrassing himself and the force”.
Also, detectives are allegedly using the police technical platform to track the original source of the video on social media. Bloggers that posted the video might be interrogated by the police for allegedly, “peddling a doctored video meant to cast the IG in bad light and embarrass the police leadership.”
Idris, in an interactive media chat on the police Twitter handle, Nigerian Police @PoliceNG #Askthepolice, had also told Nigerians that the video was doctored.
