Update:: Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu has revealed 6 ‘facts’ to prove that President Muhammadu Buhari has been ‘replaced’ by an impostor known as ‘Jubril Aminu Alsudani’. PoliticsNGR gathered that in a broadcast from Israel on Saturday, Kanu said; “In the past few days, the Presidency of Nigeria has worked very hard to put a spin on the credible revelations that the man passing off as President of Nigeria is not Buhari but a Jubril from Sudan. The spin runs like this: That Buhari does not have a ‘clone’ or that Jubril is not Buhari’s clone or that Buhari has not been biologically cloned. Even ‘Jubril’ himself, during his current trip to Poland, claimed that he is the ‘real’ Buhari, not a ‘clone’. The standard qualification to becoming a successful body double or impersonator is close resemblance to the person being impersonated. In other words, the political decoy is an individual who has been selected because of strong physical resemblance to the p...
