A Magistrate Court in Wuse, Abuja, has granted bail to a Twitter user, Ameera Sufiyan, who falsely claim that she was kidnapped.
OduNews reports that Ameera puts out a message on her Twitter page announcing that she alongside 16 others is being kidnapped by gunmen masquerading as police officers at their homes.
She, however, refuted her earlier claim after the Police announced that she has been seen and taken to a hospital.
She disclosed that she was battling a mental health issue and that led to her leaving her home and putting out the false tweets.
She was later charged to court by the Police for raising a false kidnap alarm.
As the hearing progressed, the court granted her bail on the grounds of she facing some mental health issues.
