Nnamdi Kanu assassination plot: Buhari got me arrested 11 times during his 8 years term. He was a tyrant – Adeyanju

Activist Deji Adeyanju expressed the challenges of surviving the Muhammadu Buhari administration, characterizing the former President as a tyrant. Adeyanju responded to Femi Adesina’s revelation about the past administration’s consideration of eliminating Nnamdi Kanu, leader of IPOB.

Adesina’s book, ‘Working with Buhari,’ detailed Buhari’s preference for Kanu’s arrest over elimination. Adeyanju, citing his own experience, highlighted being arrested 11 times during Buhari’s tenure.

Posting on X, Adeyanju wrote: “So Buhari contemplated killing Nnamdi Kanu? We will know how many times they tried to kill some of us one day before sending us to prison several times.

“But Buhari got me arrested 11 times during his 8 years term. They opened fire at us when I led a protest to DSS headquarters at Unity Fountain several times as well. Attacked me at Human Rights Commission, etc. History will always vindicate the just. Buhari the dictator is gone.

“It was not easy surviving Tyrant Buhari regime. On many occasions, we were almost killed at protest venues but many #EndSARS protestors were not so lucky. It was just God that saved some of us from losing our lives. We will never allow cretins like Adesina to rewrite history.”
