Nigeria’s Vice President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo has vowed to waive his constitutional immunity to allow the law deal with peddlers of fake news about him on social media.

He was reacting to the series of allegations made against his office and person, especially the alleged FIRS N90bn funds, amidst rumoured rift between him and the President.

According to Osinbajo, who specifically mentioned Timi Frank, he said he had instructed the commencement of legal action against him over the publication he made against his office.

Read full statement below;

In the past few days, a spate of reckless and malicious falsehoods have been peddled in the media against me by a group of malicious individuals.

The defamatory and misleading assertions invented by this clique have been making the social media rounds anonymously.

I have today instructed the commencement of legal action against two individuals, one Timi Frank and another Katch Ononuju, who have put their names to these odious falsehoods.

I will waive my constitutional immunity to enable the most robust adjudication of these claims of libel and malicious falsehood.

Timi Frank don buy market.

Adjudication of these claims rests with Abba Kyari and Mamman Daura, not any court of law.

You are a VP with a difference.

Way to go Prof...

Let's see how this will go with Timi and the other online bandits.

Fake news and propaganda are a national threat...

Equally as evil as corruption.

There are sure better and classier ways to be an opposition.

Please deal with him

Be deceiving yourself,you are yet to account for 800million u declared before you became vice president of Nigeria.No civil servant can emerse that kind of wealth from public service.

I really love and support this action. This should be a lesson to other people who find it as a hobby to defame the image of people all in the name of playing politics.

As if you will be in court to defend Timi when the case begins.

That's how you people boast on other people's issue while you will be at home when they face the music,
Online noisemakers.

This one don carry presidential wahala o

This government has been wrong and shamed all the way. No body should give them any legitimate reason to deal with them because they will be mercilessly merciless

I mean we gotta be right about what we say about them by knowing the platforms we throw jokes around and where our criticism ought to be constructively verifiable.

If he is honest, that's when he doesn't even need to resign, please reason well.

If he really wants to clear his name and open himself up to a GENUINE investigation as he is singing he should resign or just stop making noise
