Recall an online media had published that the minister had links with some terrorist groups and was placed on a US watchlist of terrorists. The newspaper had since retracted the statement and offered an apology to the minister.
However, David Hundeyin had dug out an old video showing the minister having a conversation with the Boko haram founder, Muhammed Yusuf.

In the video, the minister was having a debate with the Boko haram founder over the ideology which stated that education was haram.
Pantami spoke against the ideology while Yusuf spoke for the ideology.
Pantami had responded saying the discussion that was caught on video was in fact, one out of the many preachings he made against the terror group.
He said he had been preaching against the Boko haram sect for 15 years.

All these happened very recently.
Just this morning, Hudeyin had cried out that his WhatsApp number had been hacked and he had absolutely no control over the number and the messages sent from that number.
Pantami is the Minister of digital communications and is in charge of the sim registration currently going on in the country at the moment.
