Known within Kano political circles by his twitter username, @dadiyata, Abubakar Idris has been a strong campaigner for Kano State PDP’s Guber candidate Abba Yusuf.
Abubakar Idris has been a very vocal individual on twitter where he regularly tweets anti-government comments. For instance, on Wednesday, July 31st, he tweeted that Buhari lied about his certificate, adding that at least Atiku has succeeded in unmasking the fraudulent integrity sold to gullible Nigerians.
Details of his abduction are still sketchy as at the time of filing this report but this may not be unconnected with his strong-vocal nature against the APC led government.
Already, Nigerians have begun tweeting and asking questions on his whereabouts on twitter using the hashtag #WhereIsDadiyata.
See tweets below:
