dismissed a viral video alleging that there was an attempt
The Presidency has dismissed a viral video alleging that there was an attempt to poison President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at Aso Rock.
Reacting to the circulating content, presidential spokesperson Bayo Onanuga said: “No Aso Rock kitchen staff arrested. No Aso Rock kitchen staff attempted to poison President Tinubu.”
The video had claimed that members of the kitchen staff were apprehended over an alleged poisoning attempt. But the Presidency categorically denied the allegation.
“Please ignore this fake news being disseminated by this video,” Onanuga wrote on Sunday.
The rebuttal comes as the video continues to make the rounds on social media, with the Presidency insisting that there was no arrest and no attempt to poison the President as claimed in the footage.
