N90bn: Wazobia FM Retracts Osinbajo Story, Apologises To VP by Zeemam: 4:29pm On Oct 15, 2019
Wazobia FM has apologised and retracted its story on the allegations made by Timi Frank that Vice President Yemi Osinbajo received N90 billion from FIRS as campaign funds for 2019 polls.

Wazobia FM apologized to Prof. Osinbajo, saying that it had since discovered, like other well-meaning individuals and Nigerian organisations including Vanguard Newspaper that the allegations were baseless, untrue and unsubstantiated.

The radio station aired the news report of the unfounded allegations on its popular programme titled: ”Dem Say Dem Say”, retracted the reports, saying ”We are sorry Vice President.”

Wazobia FM tendered its unreserved apology to Prof Osinbajo thorough the presenter of the programme, popularly known as Expensive James, saying that it erroneously joined the broadcast of fake news.

It was gathered that the Vice President, had ,through his solicitors, Osaror Ehogbami SAN and Femi Atoyebi SAN, written to the station that the report was meant to tarnish his hard-earned reputation built over the years, saying that Vice President Osinbajo had never been found wanting or linked to any act of corruption in his private or public offices.

In a letter to the station, the solicitors had said that for over four decades, the VP had been a distinguished scholar and legal practitioner and had risen through the ranks and files of his career. The lawyers added that the VP was Attorney General of Lagos State for 8 years and became a Senior Advocate of Nigeria in 2002 with unblemished records.

Is very sad how Osibanjo is intimidating the media and press to submission.

No wonder he was accused of having track record of muscling the press/media to submission.

Pastor Indeed.

So many illiterates in Nigeria. So seeking a judicial redress amounts to intimidation? If you were sure of your story against the VP, you would not retract! You would tell him to go to court. Or do you want fake news to continue unabated?

Is quiet unfortunate that some selfish leaders who have not offer us anything through out their leadership are now using people to be againt leaders who only have the common man's interest at heart. Nigerians we really need to talk to ourself don't allowed anybody to mislead you with fake new again.

Make up your mind already, you all were supporting Timi Frank that he would meet Osinbajo in court with fire, FFK even said he knew "courageous" Timi Frank personally and would eat Prof in court for breakfast, now that Prof has gone to the same court, Story has changed abi! Very pathetic. grin

Just as expected, you can't give what you don't have. bittered frustrated heart can't bring out joyful words even when goodness is glaring.

If they have their facts right, there is nothing to be intimidated about. But retracting the story basically means Wazobia never had evidence before bringing the story to public space.
