Rivers State Government has described as fake and old the viral video clip in which the military purportedly discredited the February 25 presidential election in the State.
Commissioner for Information and Communications, Chris Finebone, in a statement on Sunday, explained that opposition elements took an old discredited 2019 video of Col. Aminu Iliyasu, doctored and circulated it to tarnish the Governor’s image, as someone who is planning to compromise the military for the forthcoming governorship election.
Finebone however alleged that their main objective was to harvest the sympathy of a certain section of Rivers voters, and urged the public to disregard the video in question.
