IGP Ibrahim Idris
The Presidency on Thursday has claimed that video of the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, struggling to learn a speech at an occasion in Kano was doctored.
Idris, who was in Kano on Monday to commission the Police Technical Intelligence unit within the state, stammered persistently as he struggled to learn a written speech.
The video stirred up reactions on-line as some Nigerians described the event as embarrassing.
Reacting, the Senior Special Adviser to the President on Diaspora & Foreign Affairs, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, mentioned the video was doctored by mischievous individuals.
She wrote: “This video is unquestionably doctored.
“The error was made once, then special effects used to repeat it. What I don’t understand is why anyone would believe. Well, it’s a Social Media world.”
