Any Further Propagation Of This Fabricated Narrative Will Attract Appropriate Legal Action - Ned Nwoko Issues Strong Warning To Those Insinuating He Is Set To Marry A New Lady
Nigerian billionaire and Senator, Ned Nwoko, has issued a warning statement to those peddling false claims about him.
The husband of actress Regina Daniels strong warning follows the rumours peddled by many netizens, over his picture with a young lady.
Addressing the misconception, Senator Ned Nwoko issued a public statement, debunking the claims and clarifying that the young lady was under the Peace Ambassadors initiative.
He explained that it is a normal thing to take pictures whenever he receives guests, stressing that it is mischievous and malicious for anyone who is using such to fabricate a false narrative.
Issuing a strong warning, he urged everyone to desist from propagating the false narrative or risk legal issues.
He wrote: "PUBLIC STATEMENT A video recently brought to my attention shows a young woman who visited with her team under the Peace Ambassadors initiative, led by Ambassador Dr Adejo Sule, and it is now being circulated online with false claims attempting to affiliate me with her. It is unfortunate that social media has become a space where moments are easily distorted for clout and misinformation.
During the visit, photographs were taken with members of the delegation, as is customary whenever I receive guests. This is not unusual; even in public places or outdoor events, people often request to take pictures with me, and I oblige. It is, therefore, mischievous and malicious for anyone to exploit such gestures to fabricate false narratives.
Let me state clearly and unequivocally that the news being propagated around her visit is entirely false. I do not have any form of personal or private connection with her.
I strongly caution individuals, groups, or media outlets spreading this fabricated story to desist immediately. Any further propagation of this false narrative will attract appropriate legal action. The Cybercrime (Prohibition, Prevention, etc.) Act, 2015 remains in full force and applies to anyone involved in the deliberate spread of falsehood or defamation in cyberspace."
