“These fabrications highlight the persistent dangers of fake news and disinformation in our society. They are not only misleading but deliberately designed to confuse, misguide, and distract the public,” Obi said.

He urged Nigerians and the international community to verify information before sharing and to resist what he described as a culture of propaganda that undermines truth and integrity.

Obi further clarified that if he had any such meetings, he would personally make them public on his verified social media handle. According to him, his politics was not about “praise or cheap publicity,” but about confronting Nigeria’s real challenges in insecurity, education, healthcare, rule of law, and poverty reduction.
