The National Security Adviser (NSA), Nuhu Ribadu, has formally demanded a public apology and retraction from political activist Naja’atu Muhammad over a controversial TikTok video she shared, which he claims is defamatory.
In an official statement released via Nigerian Stories’ X (formerly Twitter) handle, Ribadu insists that the video contains false, misleading, and damaging allegations against his person and office. While details of the video remain unclear, sources suggest it portrays the NSA in a negative light, potentially undermining his credibility and integrity.
Ribadu, a seasoned security expert and former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), is reportedly weighing legal action should Muhammad fail to comply with his demands.
Political analysts view this move as a stern warning against misinformation and character assassination, particularly in the digital age where viral content can significantly shape public perception.
As the controversy unfolds, the question remains: Will Naja’atu Muhammad issue an apology, or will this escalate into a full-blown legal battle?
