The Nigerian Navy has reacted to Monday’s disappearance of popular skit maker, Abdulgafar Ahmad Oluwatoyin aka Cute Abiola, saying that he was arrested for violating its social media policy.
The Navy’s media team released a statement said Cute Abiola was not missing but locked up in its unit for breaching the “Armed Forces social media policy.”
Speaking with The PUNCH, the Naval Head of Information and Public Relations Directorate, Navy Commodore Suleman Dahun said; “Abdulgafar is not missing but he is in detention.
“About two weeks ago, we had evidence that he was exhibiting himself on social media, contrary to the Armed Forces Social Media Policy.
“He was on leave, so we called him back to come and explain why he was breaching the Armed Forces Social Media Policy.
“He refused to come back, which itself is an offence.
“We can call anyone on leave back. We need to know why he was exhibiting himself in a manner that is contrary to the provision of the Armed Forces Social Media Policy. He refused to come back.
“So, when he came back, we put him into custody. He is in detention he is not missing.”
