Osinbajo said this while lamenting the negative effect of fake news at a BBC symposium on fake news tagged: ‘Nigeria 2019: Countering Fake News.’
At the event that was held in Abuja on Wednesday, Osinbajo said he was recently reported to have visited strippers.
The Vice President said, “I have been one of the targets of fake news. It can also sometimes cause you marital peace. I got a call from my wife about three or four weeks ago and she said Yemi what are you doing with strippers and I said what do you mean by strippers? So, I read a story in a famous blog that said, ‘Osinbajo caught with strippers’.
“And there was a photograph of me sitting between two perfectly clothed ladies but underneath this picture, the same ladies were not wearing much.
“In fact-checking the photographs with these two ladies at an entertainment event were taken when they were perfectly clothed but by the time the story was put out, it was as though I had taken a photo with them at the time they were not clothed at all.
“As it turns out, I wasn’t in the picture of where they were not wearing clothes but just the caption, the stories and all that gave the impression that here I was in the company of these ladies at a point when they were doing their business. I think the capacity of fake news to cause great harm is not in doubt at all.”

You all used fake news to come into power. So nothing new as fake news is now on fire.
ReplyDeleteYour wife should have known by now that is what people do to destroy people
Don't mind them. Wasn't it with fake news that el rufai was saying GEJ has snipers ready to take him down. Likewise the rumors they were spreading in the north most especially in the mosque that the past govt were the ones sponsoring the BH attacks to reduce the northern population.

ReplyDeleteOf course they read blogs. Their PAs, children and PR and Marketing teams all do.

Nobody is righteous..so move on.
Miserable liar.
DeleteChi m ooo
DeleteHe's very naive in how they tricked him & tagged him in picture with a notorious prostitute americsn stripper symbaserothic.
ReplyDeleteMaking it look as if it's all about promoting "entrepreneurship" & business start up success in Nigeria. But the damage is done! A whole Nigeria VP rubbing shoulders & relaxed mingling with trash entities.
Next time Osibanjo will use his sense to know that the naija business promotion of him with a stripper prostitute is not the kind to be proud of for any serious person in position of high authority.
