The development comes hours after Barbir posted a video calling out President Tinubu over fresh attacks in Nigeria’s North-Central region.
Reports indicate that more than 38 persons were killed and several others injured when gunmen attacked the Anguwan Rukuba community in Jos North Local Government Area on Sunday, March 29, 2026.
Reacting on his X (formerly Twitter) handle, @BashirAhmaad, Ahmad wrote:
“This is a strong call on the relevant authorities to urgently look into the activities of this young foreigner, Alex Barbir, who has been moving around openly, spreading hate and attempting to incite violence against Nigerians of diverse backgrounds. The authorities should take swift and lawful steps to investigate, apprehend where necessary, and ensure accountability to safeguard peace, unity, and public order.”
