Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo has lamented the negative effect regarding fake news, adding that it even put him in some trouble with his wife recently.

Osinbajo, while speaking at a BBC symposium on phony news tagged, ‘Nigeria 2019: Countering Phony News’, in Abuja on Wednesday, said a blog put up a picture depicting him posing with strippers.

The Vice-President said after a closer inspection of the photo, he discovered that he had indeed taken a picture with the women at entertainment event but they were fully clothed.

He said the blogger selected a picture of where the women were not completely clothed and presented it to the public wrongly.

Osinbajo said, “I have recently been one of the targets of fake news. That can also sometimes cause you marital peace.

I actually got a call from my wife about three weeks ago and she said Yemi what are you doing with strip-dance and I said what do you mean by strip-dance? So, I read a story in a famous blog that said, ‘Osinbajo caught with strip-dance’.
