Ex-Yobe State Governor Reacts To Viral Video Of Him With Two Women In A Hotel Room

Yesterday, Sahara Reporters posted an
amateur video of former Yobe state
governor now a senator, Bukar Ibrahim,
with two women inside a hotel, suggesting
he had just had sex with them.



The
2minutes footage showed Mr. Ibrahim
reaching for his underwear after emerging
from the shower.




The senator has now reacted to the viral
video, saying what he does with a lady
inside a room is not anyone's business and
that he doesn't owe anyone any
explanation.



He said it's a blackmail.



Bukar who reacted in an interview with
Premium Times today, said


"This is a personal, private matter.
What does my having been with a girl
have to do with the public? You know
the normal thing: people ask for
unreasonable things, and if you deny
them, they try to blackmail you if they
have a way.



If they say I raped, that’s
a different matter altogether.




Is it
because I am a public official then I
am not supposed to be entitled to
private life?




I have commenced
investigations to find out why it is
circulating.



But from all indications, it
is a blackmail”he said

The former governor who introduced
Sharia In August 2000, said one of the
ladies in the video actually told him she was
filming him and also using the camera light
to illuminate in their hotel room.




He says he
did not know that the video would be
leaked online.
