The Department of State Security (DSS) has taken into custody a woman accused of making grave threats against herself and those connected to the success of the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate, Nasiru Gawuna, at the Election Petitions Tribunal in Kano State.
As reported by the online publication Newspoint Nigeria on Tuesday, the woman, identified as 23-year-old Fiddausi Ahmadu, claimed to be advocating for the cause of NNPP and Governor Yusuf. She gained notoriety through a viral video in which she expressed her intentions.
In the video, conducted in Hausa, Fiddausi directed harsh words at the Tribunal chairman and issued warnings, including the ominous threat of using a bomb vest for self-destruction if she encountered the judge. She also directed threats at Gawuna, warning him against revealing his whereabouts, or she would resort to a similar act of violence.
Furthermore, she criticized Vice President Kashim Shettima, holding him responsible for the NNPP's legal difficulties in Kano State.
Another source indicated that the authorities are taking these threats seriously and are committed to pursuing legal action against Fiddausi Musa Ahmadu to address the gravity of the situation.
