The governor said they can only get the figure they are projecting by “importing” people from states complying with IPOB’s sit-at-home order every Monday.
“In Kaduna? Not Kaduna Twitter?
“I hope you get Two Hundred persons on the streets, including those ‘imports’ that can’t open their shops on Mondays, and came on overnight bus last night!! I just dey laff, wallahi tallahi!!”

“Peter Obi’s only crime is being Igbo.
“Next time when Igbos tell u they’re hated, believe them.
“How can this openly tribalistic fellow be fair to all citizens in his state?”
Another popular Obi supporter FS Yusuf wrote: “That you have to respond to this, is a clear indication that you feel super threatened and unsettled.
“This isn’t you disproving or dismissing a fact, this is you yielding to the trepidation that it is PO-ssible
“Import” is a strategy of APC that we won’t be employing. Rest.”
