Former Imo State Governor, Emeka Ihedioha, has said those sponsoring fake news against him in the media are his political opponents and “their collaborators who are afraid of squaring up against him in the coming elections”
Ihedioha in a statement signed by his media aide, Mr. Chibuike Onyeukwu, denied reports in the social media, where he was quoted to have said that Labour party ,LP Presidential candidate, Peter Obi, is crafty and Igbos should wait till 2023.
According to the statement, “It is worthy to note that, Emeka Ihedioha did not grant any interview in Abuja or elsewhere as claimed and His Excellency is known to acquit himself in the most civil, decent and respectful manner and therefore could not have employed such uncouth words.
“We are aware that the purveyors of these unfounded reports are unrelenting in their desperation to impugn His Excellency’s integrity and reputation. The public therefore is alerted and indeed advised to kindly ignore and disregard the fake news” part of the statement stated.
