Ogun State Deputy Governor, Mrs. Yetunde Onanuga |
Ogun State Deputy Governor, Mrs. Yetunde Onanuga, has disowned a Facebook account created in her name by an impostor trying to defraud unsuspecting members of the public.
Onanuga said this in a statement issued
by the Ogun State Ministry of Information on Sunday and urged the public
to disregard posts by the fraudster.
The deputy governor said the impostor had been using the Facebook account to promise contracts and employment opportunities for unsuspecting members of the public.
She said the fraudster also made some unwarranted comments on the leadership of the All Progressives Congress in the state.
The deputy governor, however, pledged her
unalloyed loyalty to the party, emphasising that she did not subscribe
to any social media and that any person found bearing her name on social
media was doing so not only to deceive members of the public but also
to cause crisis.
She, therefore, distanced herself from the contents of the account, insisting that she did not operate any social media account.
The deputy governor warned those behind
the fake social media account to desist from the act as relevant
agencies had been duly informed.
