The attention of Mr. Ayo Opadokun has been drawn to the falsehood published against his person as contained in The Pilot of Sunday, 28th June, 2015 on the support of the South-West for President Muhammadu Buhari in the last presidential election.

The newspaper was said to have quoted Opadokun as saying that the Yoruba, South-West Nigeria have expressed regrets over their votes for President Buhari to emerge the winner of the March 28, 2015 presidential election.

The said publication is, to say the least, a figment of the imagination of the writer as Opadokun did not at anytime make such a statement to any news medium anywhere.

The elder statesman who was out of Lagos at the time of the publication of this utter falsehood by The Pilot stated: ‘’ I did not grant any interview nor talk to any Pilot reporter at anytime, anywhere. It is a blatant lie and irresponsible journalism for any newspaper to publish such a malicious fiction.’’

It is quite disappointing that the Fourth Estate has now been taken over by people who know little or next to nothing about the ethics of the journalism profession and can, therefore, do any dirty job for filthy lucre.

It is equally unfortunate and an insult to the memory of the late foremost nationalist and elder statesman, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe that The Pilot which apparently seeks to keep alive, the memory of the famous West African Pilot published by the great Zik of Africa is now neck-deep in reactionary practices, the very anti-thesis of the real Pilot.

Ok

We go inform Buhari.

Typing...

But it is implied not directly said.

Opadokun? The NADECO guy? You intentionally create a monster, then when it starts to devour you, you start dramatising your 'sophistication' by starting off crude protests. This is how Akintola ran to the north to strike a so called "working relationship" that led to "operation wetie", street fights, mayhem and eventually the truncating of the first republic! Awolowo went with the north again in 1967, rocketing political buffoons like Gowon and Murtala to power , making the norrth the head of this Animal farm and effectively leading to a northern military/civilian domination of Nigerias politics till 1999. In between, Abiola helped babangida to power while the whole South West political leaders begged Abacha to step in 1993. Abacha did and sarted killing them as usual and they invented NADECO. Now, they have rocketed buhari to power. He is about dumping them. Next is to start maiming them. They are about to activate their rascally brand of NADECO politics. Next is to jump out through seme border into different world capitals , castigsting everybody while tarnishing the image of the country. Our dangerously sophisticated brothers. . Trouble go dey, inyanga go go wake am

So much fake news flying around these days. I have stopped talking about issues reported till a couple of fays have passed, and it has been confirmed that the information is legit.

Stop lying and grow a brain. Igbos are they ones who betrayed the south and created the opportunity for Tinubu's glorification and Buhari's ascendance. Igbo greed is the root of how the south lost power.

I am not surprised... Pilot newspaper is owned by Bukola Saraki.
