Project Nigeria has refuted rumour making the round that Elder statesman Alhaji Dr Maitama Sule is dead.

This was made known in a statement co-signed by the National Secretary, Project Nigeria Veteran Olawale Okunniyi and Aide to the Maitama Sule, Alhaji Shettima Yerima.

It read: "In view of the rumour flying around the country and the barrage of inquiries to our national secretariat by media operatives, political associates, admirers, supporters and Nigerians in general following some unconfirmed reports in the Nigeria media that Elder statesman Alhaji Dr Maitama Sule is dead, Project Nigeria wishes to formally refute the rumour that Alhaji Maitama Sule, co chair of Project Nigeria is dead.

"For the avoidance of doubt members of the secretariat team of Project Nigeria did converse with the Elder statesman yesterday and today again and he said he is not just alive but hale and hearty and in very sound health. Furthermore, as we issue this statement now Alhaji Maitama Sule is speaking at a lecture at the Bayero University, Kano, Kano state to prove that he is in good shape.

"We wish to thank members all Nigerians who showed concerned about the wellbeing of the elder statesman and wish to assure them that Alhaji Maitama Sule will still be here to contribute his quota to the ongoing effort of Project Nigeria (National Consensus Group) to restructure Nigeria and make it a stable and prosperous polity for all.

"Lastly, we wish to advise those who may have other motive in peddling this unsavory rumour to please desist forth with as we call on the security apparatus of the Nigerian state to be alert and vigilant towards the personal security of the elder statesman".mr amshi

Why would this half baked journalist not confirm their news before rushing to the pres all the time?how can someone wish a fellow human being who is alive dead?this thing is geting out of hand,first Pete edochie was rumored to have died in far away Austria whereas he's alive,now alhaji maitama sule,as if some people are happy to see others dead.my prayer is that those that wish others dead should be the one's to die first in Jesus name .AMENOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The solution is divide the useless country.
