People can’t lead spiritual prayers too? Why direct to slap him? Why not remove him without the slaps?

The hypocrisy of Nigerians...when Mrs Ojukwu slapped a lady, everyone laughed and praised her...including ARISE News. Now the Gov ordered someone to be slapped, and the same Nigerians, including AriseNews, are playing judge and jury. Like I always say, something is truly wrong with us.

I don't understand what this characters in power take us for, we all saw the video and how the governor was beating his chest in that video but because it has gone viral ad looks embarrassing, he is boldly lying to us.

■ The governor considers the three days Fidau Prayers as a very sensitive and important event that should be presided over by an Imam or any renowned Islamic Scholar, not by an unqualified individual. The governor’s decision to ask the individual to leave the venue of the prayer is based on maintaining the sanctity and solemnity of the occasion.
He found the act of the person not just as disrespectful to the dead and the reason for the gathering but also as insensitive which led to him requesting that he be taken out by the security agents. The continued attacks on the Governor’s character by some. media outlets over this issue are unfortunate and uncalled for, especially since the Governor’s actions were meant to curb the excesses of unruly individuals and prevent the Fidau prayer from being reduced to a mere spectacle or a child’s play,” Wakaso stated.
The Special Adviser, who disclosed that the fake cleric had been a fan of the governor whom the governor had tried to empower several times, merely showed his overzealousness to get noticed by the governor.
“The individual involved not only denied being slapped by the security agents who ordered him out of the deputy governor’s residence in a video but has publicly apologized to the Imams and the governor, acknowledging his overzealousness and inappropriate actions. He has shown remorse and requested forgiveness from both the governor and the forum of Imams[l.
“The Governor’s actions were driven by respect for the deceased, the purpose of the gathering, and the need to preserve the sanctity of the Fidua Prayer,” she added.
The Governor is very stewpid for considering this a reasonable response to what transpired in the video. Is he trying to have us believe that the correct response in such a case is physical assault? That video documents a criminal assault committed by the Governor against one of his people. I don't blame him at all. I blame the people of Niger who keep such a thug in office as their State Governor and representative. undecided

You lost context. The woman Bianca slapped was reputed to be a giver of slaps to people around her especially the domestic workers. She's the all powerful gov's wife who is now former.
In essence, Bianca was giving her a taste of her own medicine. I hope you get the gist now

Hypocrisy of Nigerians.
Pls try to be objective in your comments.
What you cited is a case of altercation between 2 women. Bianca's defence was that she acted under provocation & in self-defence, which are both tenable in a court of law.

What happened here is a Governor abusing the power of his office by ordering security to slap a citizen. Nobody, not even the President has the right to do this, so it is illegal.

Our elected leaders in power always see themselves as demi gods & fail to realise that they are there to serve the people. Else the Governor should have simply admitted he over-reacted & apologised, instead of issuing a Public statement denying his actions in a video that we all watched.
That's clearly taking Nigerians for granted.
