Maikori was first arrested in Lagos on February 17 and later released for claiming via the social media that five students of the Kaduna State College of Education, Gidan-Waya, were killed in an attack by suspected Fulani herdsmen.
The Nigerian Police has arrested Audu Maikori, a lawyer and CEO of Chocolate City Entertainment, on allegations of incitement following a series of tweets by Maikori about an attack on his relatives in Southern Kaduna which eventually proved to be false
