Verdict: Misleading and fake old news
The trending WhatsApp message is fake and misleading old
news. It trended even during the time of
former President Muhammadu Buhari. But various checks ran on Google Search, including
most of the Nigeria’s owned media, State House (official website dedicated for
publication of activities of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu) and National
Assembly did not show positive reports.
