Ignore Purveyors Of Fake Court Report Against President Tinubu-Yahaya Bello …Says They Will Face Legal Consequences Of Their Action
The Media Office of the immediate past Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, has refuted, in strong terms, what it described as an “absolutely senseless report published by a mushroom blog”, which attributed fake quotes against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to the former governor.
The Director, Yahaya Bello Media Office, Ohiare Michael, in a statement on Sunday night, said that the report was part of a desperate plot by those he referred to as irresponsible politicians to strain the relationship between the President and ex-Governor Bello.
According to him, the said report, which quoted the former governor as saying, during a court session, that he would reveal how President Tinubu became President, is the most laughable twist in the failed bid of desperate politicians to execute their bring-him-down-at-all-costs mirage.
Ohiare said the report was not only misleading “but also a confirmation of how unintelligent some unrelenting detractors of the former governor are.”
He said, “Every Nigerian who has been following court proceedings since the former governor submitted himself to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), knows that trial has not commenced in any of the cases. Former Governor Bello has only taken his plea at both courts.
“The court is an open place where proceedings are monitored by journalists and other stakeholders. This is the reason no informed Nigerian would even consider opening this sick report by an ‘Excessive fake news purveyor’ called Daily Excessive. But a ‘conquered’ mind is a sick mind, so we understand the plight of these mischief makers.
“We, however, wish to stress here that even those that the hatchet job executors are trying to confuse know that His Excellency, Alhaji Yahaya Bello has great respect for the person and office of Mr. President and would never make such ridiculous remarks attributed to him against the President,” he added.
The former governor’s media office noted that security agencies had been alerted to unveil the identities of those behind the website that was used in circulating the fake report “and will ensure that the purveyors of the fake news face the legal consequences of their action.”
The statement reads in full, “Our attention has been drawn to a not only mischievous, but absolutely senseless report published by a mushroom blog called Daily Excessive, which attributed fake quotes against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to our principal, the immediate past Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello.
“Ordinarily, we would not have even bothered to give this any attention, considering the fact that no informed Nigerian would take such a ridiculous story, written by a sick mind, seriously, especially since court records are public documents.
“This clarification is, however, necessary for the record and for the benefit of social media users who circulate fake news without fact-checking the details.
“The report, which is part of the desperate plot by irresponsible politicians to strain the relationship between our President and former Governor Yahaya Bello is the most laughable twist in their failed bid to execute their bring-him-down-at-all-costs mirage.
“The Media Office of His Excellency, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, hereby states that the report in circulation by one Daily Excessive blog, which quoted the former governor to have said that he would reveal to the world how President Tinubu became President is not only misleading but also a confirmation of how unintelligent some unrelenting detractors of the former governor are.
“Every Nigerian who has been following court proceedings, since the former governor submitted himself to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, knows that trial has not commenced in any of the cases. Former Governor Bello has only taken his plea at both courts.
“The court is an open place where proceedings are monitored by journalists and other stakeholders. This is the reason no informed Nigerian would even consider opening this sick report by an “Excessive fake news purveyor” called Daily Excessive. But a ‘conquered’ mind is a sick mind, so we understand the plight of these mischief makers.
“We, however, wish to stress here that even those that the hatchet job executors are trying to confuse know that His Excellency, Alhaji Yahaya Bello has great respect for the person and office of Mr. President and would never make such ridiculous remarks attributed to him against the President.
“Alhaji Yahaya Bello will continue to support the President and his party, the All Progressives Congress, despite the misleading picture his detractors are trying so hard to paint.
“We have alerted security agencies to unveil the identities of those behind the website that was used in circulating this fake report and will ensure that the purveyors of the fake news face the legal consequences of their action.”
