President Buhari's media aide, Bashir Ahmad has countered a viral video in which some people were seen struggling to touch the corpse of an "unidentified person" at a burial ceremony.

Some social media users had alleged that the video was from the burial ceremony of the late Emir of Rano, who died yesterday after being hospitalized after an undisclosed ailment.

Bashir Ahmad who is an indigene of Kano State, countered the claim by stating that the late monarch of one of the newly created Emirates in the state was buried inside his Palace few hours after he died.

The Presidential aide further disclosed that a Rano Emirate official also told him that the burial ceremony was attended by less than 20 people.

He tweeted;

The remains of late Emir of Rano buried inside his Palace approximately an hour ago, with less than 20 people attended the burial, but a fake video of thousands people has been trending throughout the day, purported to be his burial, it was not, Rano Emirate official told me.

The north can never tell themselves the truth.

Each time I sneeze, I always check the droplets on my palm to see if I will find any green thurnhead virus

This stupid Bashir with him broken bottle English again.

How this thing take end up as a country's President's media aide is indeed mind-boggling and says a lot about everything.

Keep living in denial. The number of deaths that will befall Kano in the coming weeks will tell us the exact number of people that attended the burial. Let the countdown begin.

The way Buharis mouthpiece Garbar and Bashir have been lying, you’d think are these people really fasting?

Lol ok dude we'll wait for leaked video to surface.

Good if true.
But can we see the pictures or video from the said burial, one can't trust these media aides just like that. We all saw that of Kyari and Modu Sheriff.
