Blasphemy: Netizens drag Adama Garba over photoshopped picture

The chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and former Presidential aspirant, Adamu Garba, is currently being dragged online over a photoshopped picture.

Garba infuriated some Nigerians online when he posted a now-deleted photoshopped picture of himself wearing a cap which is worn by Catholic bishops and abbots.

The APC chieftain had earlier released some pictures showing his attendance at the unveiling of Kashim Shettima as the APC vice presidential candidate.

However, one of the pictures was photoshopped with the former presidential aspirant sharing the picture online on Wednesday night.

Following the development, some netizens took to the micro-blogging platform Twitter to express their reactions on the matter.

Below are some of the reactions online.

“People like Adamu Garba can make and reshare jokes like this because???”

@mayowacrown wrote: “Let someone talk now, their brothers will be jumping about changing your tweet, asking: must he do what you want and add laugh emoji. Like wetin cause laugh. Try with them and you see them running about.

“This Adamu Garba is the most stupid & disrespectful of them all.”

@DiceyPrince_ wrote: “I’m old enough to remember when a blasphemous cartoon in faraway Denmark caused the killing of Christians living in the north in their hundreds.

“I don’t blame Adamu Garba. If CAN was a responsible body people will think twice before doing crap like that.”
