The young man who was put behind bars for impersonating Goodluck Jonathan has revealed that he is heartbroken after he came out of detention to discover his girlfriend has moved on.

Shola was detained for 81 days for creating a Goodluck Jonathan parody Twitter account and making a tweet about his wife Patience Jonathan.

He has now disclosed that going to jail and the resulting trauma aren't the only things he has had to endure. He says he also came out to find that he's now 'booless'.

"Just 81 days in detention and my girlfriend already has a new boyfriend. Females are so impatient," he tweeted.

View his tweet below:



Narrating how he was arrested, the student said his uncle called him that policemen wanted to see him.

The student said on getting to his uncle’s house, the police arrested him and did not reveal to him the reason for his arrest.

“It was when I got to the station that I was asked what I did to offend Goodluck Jonathan,” Babatude said.

“I spent over a month in police custody before I was arraigned,” he added.

The student said he created the parody account with the best of intentions and never defrauded anyone or impersonated the former President.

He said he abided by the Twitter rules guiding the creating of parody accounts and wondered why he was subjected to such wickedness.

“I set it up just to make the timeline fun. I have my own personal twitter account, but I just wanted to ‘catch cruise’. It was my personal Twitter account that I converted. It was the same handle @jayythedope, but I changed my picture and profile name to that of Jonathan.

“I left my cover picture as @Jayythedope. All my information and personal email address were included in my bio. It was not an attempt to impersonate the former President. I also stated clearly that I was not GEJ. It was just a parody account. I didn’t expect things to blow up the way they did,” he said.
