A young Nigerian man who was reportedly arrested alongside Hushpuppi by Interpol in Dubai, has shared his first social media post in over 53 weeks.
The man on Instagram with the handle @officialpac02 said he was arrested just a week to his birthday and he saw his life that had great expectations crumble before him.
He didn’t give much details about what led to his release but he noted that the pain of incarceration and agonies of torture is what he would not wish on even his enemy.
He however confirmed that his bestfriend, Hushpuppi is still in detention.
About 16 hours ago, the young man took to his Instagram page to share a photo of himself with the caption ;
It is not funny how a dramatic turn of event can change everything forever. What seemed a quest for greener pastures turned out to be the darkest 6mths of my life. The pains of incarceration, the groans of solitude, the agonies of torture, my life that is lived with hope and great expectations was crumbling before me. A year ago today, I, Rahman(Hushpuppi) and some other friends got arrested in Dubai, it was a week to my birthday, I thought the end has come. How am I supposed to make it out of these? I came to Dubai for opportunities, but here I am, behind guarded bars. The experience was not palatable, I wouldn’t wish it on an enemy. Miraculously they got nothing on me. Freedom is good, but the experience remains indelible as I can’t free my thoughts and minds from the grips of confinements. I still have nightmares. For all it is worth, I am happy to walk the street and take-in the air as a free man. I am thankful for life and for the grace to look forward to my next birthday as a celebration of life and not behind bars counting down days with possibilities of worst outcomes. Life has not been the same since, more so, with my best friend and benefactor(Hushpuppi) still in detention. I hope he gets lucky too. I hope he returns back to his friends and families in one healthy piece.
I want to thank everyone that stood by me during these trying times. I want to say thank you to obakaakaki for the ceaseless love and affection
