The presidency has raised an alarm that some people are plotting to churn out a series of falsehood against President Muhammadu Buhari.
In a statement on Wednesday, Buhari’s spokesperson, Femi Adesina, said the aim of the “smear campaign” was to portray Buhari as not being in charge of Nigeria.
According to the president media aide, those behind the campaign want to cast Buhari in a bad light.
Femi Adesina claimed that disgruntled political elements are shopping for an online media that will serve as accomplices in their nefarious act.
“The game plan is to launch an orchestrated campaign of calumny in the days ahead, in which President Muhammadu Buhari would be portrayed as not being in charge of the country, a narrative already started from a procured offshore medium by the instigators,” he said.
“Money and other attractive inducements are being dangled before the online media, and some of them are already complicit, cooking up stories with jejune and unsubstantiated allegations, all to sow seeds of discord and discontent in the country.
“Nigerians are urged to be wary and discerning in what they consume as news and special reports from such online media, as they are in cahoots with agents of destabilization, seeking ultimate political gains.”
He stated that President Buhari will not be distracted from delivering his campaign promises to Nigerians.
According to him, there is already evidence of Buhari’s infrastructural developments as seen in roads, rail, bridges, airports, and many others across the country.
“The fight against corruption, insecurity, and retooling of the economy also proceeds apace, and the Buhari Administration will not be distracted, and will continue to serve with heart and might, irrespective of all shenanigans,” Femi Adesina added.
