He said that “a group of high ranking members of Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN), led by one Dr Abdullahi Danladi, a lecturer at Ahmadu Bello University Zaria,’’ was misrepresenting facts about the incident.
“He was at the university on Wednesday soliciting support and telling lies about the circumstances surrounding the incident and the incident itself.

“Dr Abdullahi Danladi and like minded individuals should be warned to desist from telling lies and misrepresentation of facts capable of misleading the general public.”
