The most widely read newspaper in Nigeria

Also, the National President of Criminology and Security Practitioners Association of Nigeria, Williams Ekposon, said though Pantami claimed to have renounced his support for terrorist groups, the minister was not worthy of being entrusted with information as sensitive as Nigerians’ data. He urged Pantami to apologise to Nigerians and resign from his appointment.

Also, a Lagos-based security expert, Dickson Osajie, advised the minister to tender his resignation on account of his “romance with terrorists” in the past. “For me, I expected that before he was appointed, there should have been a pre-appointment screening which would have looked into his data as far back as 30 years ago. We are not talking about repentance here; we are talking about national security. I read one of his articles where he said he had repented.

He added, “I am not contesting the fact that he had repented as he claimed. But the truth is he needs to resign because he needs to set an example for upcoming extremists that they don’t have to put Nigeria at risk. There is power in the tongue. Whatever you say today can destroy many lives. Ubani said, “Anybody can be accused but once it is weighty enough that he has in any way previously or currently entangled, either by lectures, professions, affiliations with both local and international terrorist organisations, he should voluntarily step down while further investigation is going on.

The PDP said going by the public outrage against his utterances in the past, the best “is for him to resign and even tender his unreserved apology to Nigerians for his utterances in the past.”

Biased at its peak! None among the so call security expert is a Muslim, how will they do justice to him. How will you know the level of the expert fairness on him in a country like Nigeria.

SexualFreedomBF Don’t know why they are wasting time to decides his prosecution

To hell with the experts that cannot detect the sponsors and the roots of BOKO! PantamiWillstay

PantamiResignNow

The issue should n9t be brush aside. Many Northerners are in support of boko and herdsmen atrocities to be honest. Why is Buhari silent? Did he not sworn Oath to protect its citizens?

Nonsense. What plea? IStandWithPantami

What is this terrorists still doing, haven’t FG of terrorists sacks him yet

Pandemic has to resign

So, now everyone get sense of thinking now he is a terrorist whatever, so now America is helping Nigerians fighting insurgency now,😂

Buhari will not sack this terrorist in his cabinet. After all Buhari once told Goodluck Jonathan’s government to stop killing Boko haram members. Buhari was also Boko haram chief negotiator and an appointed spiritual leader. Pantami did exactly what Buhari did and still doing.

FBI should pick these terrorist no wonder if UN give federal government about information concern boko haram in next 20 second boko haram we got the information

Why always trying to blackmail Muslim when ever such things happened, he has facts more then you making noise don't intimidate him

In a civilized nation,this man should already be in jail,these people remain Nigeria's problem.

May Allah continue protect our super minister from bad dogs. More power to your elbow sir

Those demanding for his impeachment has there parsonal interests.Nigerians re not fools we all knwz everything. You want him to be impeached so dat u can continue with Evil u re doing underground dat he s abt to tackle in terms of insecurity. God will continue to elevate him .

Pantami should’ve been in jail by now

Oshey rejectors general of the federation. Make dem sack am using their office na😂 mumu people

Security expert kii u dia😂😂

Security expert or PDP agents 🤗🤗

See the kind of people the president took 6 months to find into his cabinet...SMH!

DrIsaPantami born in 1972 claims he was a teenager when he preached about his support for AL-QAEDA, Taliban and boko haram. In early 2000s he was around 26 to 36 years How was he a teenager at 20? IsaPantamiMustResign isapantamiresign OfficialAPCNg scam

Birth control must be enforced in this country. I read through horrible, and illogical responses here. Suddenly, Pantami is now the poster face of Islam😂😂 Asking Pantami to resign is now an attack on Islam. The devil will be celebrated if he says look here I am now a Muslim.

Pantami is more of a threat than a single terrorist, because he has the potential of initiating violence, recruiting more terrorists and causing the death of innocent people in just one Friday preaching. PantamiIsATerrorist PantamiMustGo PantamiResign

Unfortunately, no amount of heat will make PantamiResign because it's not the culture here. In fact this the time he'll stay glued to his seat. Kemi, the former finance Minister resigned honorably because she was not the breed of politicians we have in this country.

It baffles me how the almighty DSS where able to confirm him as a minister. This is Boko Haram government.

Apc government is a Terrorist government. PatamiResignNow

How comes the TERRORIST had been getting info about the movement of our GaLLanT_SoLDiErS thereby AmBuSHiNg and KiLLiNg them? Someone once said it was the ChRisTiAn_SoLDiErS that were KiLLiNg the TeRRoRiSt? How did he know?

One good thing about this man is he apologizes but others in this APC government will never because they believe nothing will happen and their Oga at the top don't care.

IssaOluwatosin Let's follow each other.. I promise to follow back

nwamgbeke This man should resign already

ANY RELIGION WHICH CENTRES ON PEOPLE FIGHTING FOR THE DEITY IS FAKE, AND SHOULD NOT BE PRACTICED. GOD IS GOD,U CANNOT HELP HIM OR FIGHT FOR HIM,HE FIGHT HIS BATTLE HIMSELF,SO I WONDER WHY PEOPLE HAVE TO FIGHT FOR THEIR GOD,THAT IT IS THEIR MANDATE, EXCEPT THEIR GOD IS HELPLESS.

Lol Boko haram APC govt are now trying to distance themselves from their comrade smh

The law is clear on this, but from years of experience in internal security matters, the Rule of Law remains the floor rug of our rulership. The minister has no business in public office given his antecedents as evidenced and publicly admitted.

It's unfortunate that the patanmi is bringing political colouration into this. I don't blame him, I blame his employer and the lazy fools that screen him by taking a bow and leave. People like him can never change overnight having that kind of mindset before, Nigeria is rotting.

Allow this man to work now.....

pantamiMUSTresignNOW

Ifb

PantamiResignNow PantamiIsATerrorist

Federal govt should also scrutinize is work. PantamiResignNow

Who dey plea?

'It is a small terrorist group that resides outside Nigeria that was paid by some people within to perpetrate the dastardly act'~Goodluck E. Jonathan, then Nigeria's sitting President defending self acclaimed MEND's Henry Okah's Terrorists' Independence day multiple car bombings.

This man is very handsome, why sud be involved in stiffs like this

Pantami is a terrorist just like his father Buhari they created Boko Haram terrorist

Security expert that couldn't tackle insecurity, minister of communication is now doing their job, they start lamenting.

Pantamphobia

Lol, Link your NIN

In addition to the random opining of steve_hanke on Nigeria, here is more evidence pointing to an unholy alliance between the far right enemies of America and the enemies of Nigeria.

Donteewrites Fire this man expeditiously you people are here pussy footing.

The honorable thing he ought to do is to step down

Let him step down. Simple

Is he the reason why Boko Haram have been ambushing our Army🤔,I don't know how Boko Haram have been intercepting every information within the NIGERIA Army 🤔,is the minister wiring telephone conversation of the Nigeria Army to Boko Haram,our communication minister is a terrorist

Arrestpantaminow he is a threat to National security

Emeka_DKing What goes up must come up!

He is a security treat

Take away the North from the south and experience peace of mind

Hmmm He is not a religious femitism so.

Northerners have the same mindset as this terrorist Isa Pantami terrorist

Pretence and deception is what his apology is all about.....the heart of a wicked man is deep with treachery and lies......

It’s funny and shame The Islamic rule n regulations in north is blind to find their own mothers fathers brothers sisters daughters n cousins that are sleeping n eating under Ibadan mokola bridge to give them life but can arrest people who refuse to fast 😂 eti sofo danu

Derek74399105 We all can remember when GEJ said Boko Haram has infiltrated his government in 2015 Pantami is one of those people & they’re more inside OfficialAPCNg They’ve been sabotaging the war on terrorism within the government & liking all our information to counter attacks our people

Why shld anybody believe his plea. Its an obvious lie & their thinking is that we are as gullible as their brothers in the North. If not he won't now be rescinding from his buffoonery and expect us to believe jst like that. He shld resign and be arrested for further investigation

Expert my ass. If they were experts he wouldn’t have been there in the first place. Y’all goofy

🙏Please support me by listening or download my song online 🙏 👇👇👇

I still wonder why this man still has his job

If buhari keeps him, the north will see war

What this means is our national data is at risk with him in charge.The framework for registration of NIN is faulty, Non-Nigerian bandits with NIN were caught with AK. You cannot just put a system that registers anyone. What is the criteria to register someone as a citizen?

Good! However, those extreme views of yours had motivated several of your followers into being sympathetic towards extremist Islamic ideology, hence joining terrorist organizations!

PantamiResignNow PantamiResignNow PantamiResignNow PantamiResignNow PantamiResignNow PantamiResignNow PantamiResignNow PantamiResignNow PantamiResignNow PantamiResignNow If truly this is one Nigeria Pantami should honorably resign.

I hate to judge a book by its cover.... But look at him na. Wetin una dey see?

We all know Buhari won't sack him...he's his brother so let's rest...the north would always support their own right or wrong. So except the minister steps down, nothing would happen. Na naija we dey. 😂😂😂

He has a bad record against Christians back then in sch at ATBU , a lot of student back the are confirming to this ..

Now I am getting the reason twitter shift ground to Ghana, Germany favored Ghana over Nigeria, Shorprite moved out, lots of Nigerian big companies moving out, no wonder Fulani herdsmen full everywhere operating with ease, why won't I support Oodua nation

PantamiIsNotATerrorist PantamiwillnotResign pantamiwilstay

Isa my gate man, pls u won't die, Just take a bow simple. I have suspected u since but I was waiting for the D day. Fowl nyash don open..DrIsaPantami

He should be removed.

What glue is holding terrorists to Nigeria's public office. 'Jihad is the highest form of Islam'. How demented can people be?

Just mention how many terrorist dey 4 our govt? Simple

And you want international brand to take you people seriously, when your minister supports terrorists? 😆🤣 .. if he's not fired, it simply shows that the north led government is the main sponsor of terrorism in Nigeria, and more reason sharia is thriving without check

He should just resign and go home before America drones come after him secretly.

They ve 2 be rejected swiftly without sentiments. Every action of a public officer like IsaPantami whether wittingly or otherwise regardless of dTimeline must ve a reverberating effect on him & his suitability 4 office. I've seen ds in modern climes. Resignation&TrialENDSITALL!

Dey are trying keep him in office u guys don’t knw wat is going on d year he ws claiming nt to be interested in public office eye never open den Bt nw everybody wan billions just as Fulani herdsmen turn into criminals bcoz Dey also wan to live like Southern Dey wan enjoy too

And buhari trusted him with sensitive data of Nigerians. Who can't read the handwriting on the wall?

Don't you think you need one of these cute customized 3D Wallclocks on your wall? Price : N8000

D northern elites are d sponsors of boko haram.dey are d ones running the govt.fulani herdsmen and boko haram are the same just that one disguise with cattle to invade new territories. southerners still being politically correct will have themselves to blame.

Better. We must come to a logical conclusion on this matter.
