Kaduna-based Public Commentator, Mahdi Shehu, was on Tuesday remanded at the Kaduna correctional service facility.
He was arraigned at the Chief Magistrate Court 1, Kaduna, on two count charges of conspiracy, aiding and abetting terrorism, contrary to section 26 (2)(3) of the terrorism (Prevention & Prohibition) Act, 2022 and inciting public disturbances contrary to section 78 of the penal code law of Kaduna State, 2017.
Shehu had alleged in a post made on his X account of plans by the federal government to site a French military base in the north-east of Nigeria as reportedly claimed by the Niger Republic military leader, Abdourahamane Tchiani, which was later rebutted by the Nigerian government.
He was arrested by the Department of State Services, DSS, some days ago and was summarily arraigned at the Chief Magistrate Court for prosecution.
The Magistrate, Abubakar Lamido, remanded Shehu in the Correctional Service facility and adjourned to 14th January, 2025, for further hearing of the case.
