This ⬆⬆⬆ is the first article that answered the question that I asked yesterday. naptu2: This is not 1985. It was difficult to verify this kind of news item in 1985, but today all these agencies and people are online and verification is much easier. That's why I immediately went to the FBI's list of wanted terrorists when this story broke yesterday. There's no Pantami on the list. See for yourself. https://www.fbi.gov/wanted/wanted_terrorists Now, if it was some top secret list that nobody had access to, do you think that Nigerian newspapers would have access to the information? That's the other thing, how come the story only appeared on Nigerian news sites (most of them copied it from Daily Independent)? How come it's not on the BBC, CNN, etc? This looks more like some kind of propaganda campaign. 72 Likes 7 Shares |

Damage control..!!!! The dishonorable Minister should honorably resign and allow for proper and forensic investigation into the allegation. The US intels/investigative agencies are not slow pocks as their Nigerian counterparts so you don't expect them to disclose classified and sensitive security details that could lead to diplomatic row (since Pantamin is a serving member of the government) to an unknown journalist just for the asking. CONCLUSION The writer of this piece is too hasty in making conclusions therefore ought to be added to the watch list 124 Likes 8 Shares |

Nonsense .. I am beginning to believe this op is either a staff of Pantami or a beneficiary because I dont understand his worry over this matter since yesterday.... The worrisome questions this OP should fact check should be : Was Pantami ever rusticated from ATBU for religious extremism ? Has Pantami ever clamoured for Nation wide Sharia? Did Pantami condemn the US killing of Alqeada terrrorist Al Zawihiri? Did Pantamie ever condemn the US killing of Osama bin Laden.? The fact he even had respectable access to the boko haram founder is also worrisome 124 Likes 7 Shares |

Fact Check: Every Northern Governor or Politician is a Boko Haram sympathizer. Including President Buhari All Muslims worldwide share the same sentiments as Boko-Haram/Al Qaeda. Don't let their preaching of peace fool you. I knew there was definitely something up with that guy whenever i hear his name being mentioned by Shekau in almost all Boko Haram videos. 125 Likes 7 Shares |

The truth is that Nigerians problem is too much.... Most news that grace the front page here are mostly negative about Nigeria.... And you think foreigners don't come here to see what's happening? Especially how most Nigerians speak bad about their country? Remember when Dunlop and Micheline left Nigeria for Ghana.... Things weren't even as bad as it is now.... Now twitter has decided to situate its African headquarters in Ghana.... Truth be told, it's a slap on Nigeria. But you can't really blame them.... Most times we open nairaland, it's about one bad news or the other..... Mostly insecurity.... Nobody wants to do business in fear. I would have said hope our leaders can learn from this, but truth be told.... They really don't care. We are just on our own for now. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

There is a difference between being on the US terror watchlist and being on US wanted list The previous report was about Sheik Isa Pantami being on the US terror watchlist. Your fact check is on US wanted list. When did Watchlist and Wanted list become the same ? You are attempting to change the narrative to whatever that suits your bias. @naptu, there is no fact in your fact check, but rather a deceptive and subjective narrative to distort facts. 68 Likes 3 Shares |

Thanks, oga naptu2 The sad thing is that many Nairalanders believed the fake news that Pantami was a terrorist largely because 1.Many of them don't like the APC government (I don't myself, but not to the point of hate) 2.Many of them are bigoted towards Northerners because 'sharing things stuff'. It was wrong to call Pantami a terrorist. It is wrong to hate someone on the basis of his or her religion too. And my saying this does not mean i 1) think that Islam does not have issues...the religion does 2) think that Buhari is a great leader...he is not, and I never ever voted for him. 16 Likes |
