The Atiku Media Office has accused the Presidency of engaging in a high-level propaganda campaign against former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
According to a statement signed by Paul Ibe, Atiku’s Media Adviser, the Presidency has allegedly hired faceless mercenaries to fabricate fake stories and circulate unauthorized statements on Atiku.
The controversy surrounds a press release issued in Atiku’s name by a self-styled “media consultant” named Kola Johnson, claiming that an Atiku administration would be dominated by a single ethnic group.
Atiku’s office has denied any involvement with Johnson and described the statement as fake.
The media office stated categorically that Atiku Abubakar has never engaged Kola Johnson as a media consultant, aide, or associate.
It said that any statement issued in Johnson’s name is fake and should be disregarded.
The office stated that authentic information from Atiku Abubakar is only released through the Atiku Media Office, signed by Paul Ibe or the Special Assistant on Public Communications.
The Atiku Media Office has urged media houses to retract the falsehoods and advised Nigerians to remain vigilant against the Presidency’s propaganda schemes.
