Man Who Allegedly Declared He Could ‘Sacrifice His Parents for APC’ in Viral Video Reportedly Arrested After Father’s Complaint

A man who recently sparked outrage on social media after allegedly declaring in a viral video that he could “sacrifice his parents for APC” has reportedly been arrested following a complaint said to have been initiated by his father.

The video, which spread rapidly across various social media platforms, triggered intense reactions from Nigerians, with many expressing shock and concern over the controversial statement. In the clip, the man was alleged to have made extreme comments while professing loyalty to the ruling party, a remark many viewers described as disturbing and unacceptable

Reports circulating online claim that the development took a dramatic turn after the man’s father allegedly intervened and reported the matter, leading to his arrest. Though details surrounding the exact circumstances of the arrest remain unclear, the incident has generated widespread discussion about political fanaticism and the limits of partisan loyalty.

Social media users have continued to react to the controversy, with many condemning extreme political statements and warning against allowing party affiliation to overshadow family values and personal judgment.

Others argued that political support should never be elevated to a point where individuals make statements perceived as threatening or harmful, even in jest. Some observers also questioned whether the comments were intended as satire, exaggeration, or a serious declaration

As of the time of filing this report, authorities have yet to issue an official statement regarding the matter, while further details are expected to emerge.
The incident has once again highlighted how viral content can quickly escalate into national conversations, especially when politics and sensitive family issues intersect.
