APC debunks report of Tinubu throwing Naira notes at Lagos crowd

Meanwhile, the APC Lagos chapter has described the purported report of Tinubu throwing wads of naira at the crowd at the mega rally as fake news from the pit of hell.

The Publicity Secretary, Lagos APC. Seye Oladejo said the fake news emanated from the phenomenal success of the Lagos grand rally which dazed opponents.

According to Oladejo: “Dazed by the phenomenal success of Lagos grand rally held today’s (February 21), frustrated political opponents have resorted to planting fictional story of Naira-throwing by our candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

“In a currently trending post, the orchestrated report purports that Asiwaju Tinubu threw wads of bank notes to a cheering crowd at Oshodi as his motorcade rode past from Lagos airport en route to Teslim Balogun Stadium, Surulere, Lagos.

“It is nothing but a lie from the pit of hell. It is part of an ongoing well-oiled campaign of calumny in a compromised section of the media to project Asiwaju in bad lights at a time millions of Nigeria are unable to access their hard-earned cash deposited in the banks.

“Asiwaju has championed the cause of long-suffering Nigerians that they are allowed to spend old bank notes pending when CBN is able to make adequate bank notes available. So, where will Asiwaju have seen new notes to be thrown on Lagos highways?

“Ordinarily, we would have ignored this infantile lie given its provenance (one of the cheap bloggers hired by political opponents now traumatised by APC’s imminent victory on February 25).

“But we chose to make this brief statement for the sake of the gullible who might be deceived by such cheap spin.

“A closer look at the accompanying short video (attached to the referenced fake report) will clearly reveal that two APC leaders are the ones actually throwing branded APC fez caps and leaflets to the cheering crowd. Certainly not Naira notes.

“We urge our supporters and all right-thinking Nigerians to remain calm and vote for Asiwaju Tinubu and all APC candidates on Saturday, February 25.”

Earlier, Nigerian singer, Naira Marley, led other hip-hop musicians to entertain a massive crowd.

Supporters and party faithful were chanting Tinubu’s name in solidarity and admiration of all.
