Femi Obanlekoko (aka Femzy) is a notorious fake news peddler.

On April 1st he posted fake news that the Nigerian Customs Service had declared Sarkin Mota (Aliyu Mohammed aka King of Cars, who is a popular car dealer) wanted. He said that people had complained to the Customs Service that Sarkin Mota sold defective cars and even the FRSC had complained, so the Customs Service had declared him wanted.

Sarkin Mota threatened to take legal action and Femzy began begging and claiming that the post was an April Fool joke.


Femzy also spread fake news that Eniola Badmus was pimping girls to politicians. People had to beg on his behalf when Eniola Badmus threatened to take action against him.

He had also posted fake news about Adekunle Gold, Simi and their daughter.

Some people say that he had previously been arrested for spreading fake news.

He need to be arrested and charged for false news, this can cause a RUN ON THE BANK and that is very bad.

Normally, I don't have confidence in that bank. I abandoned my Company Account with some money there since the account is dormant. Apart from patronage from Lagos State government, that bank lacks some attributes of CAMEL rating.

Put him behind bars to deter others from spreading false news

You are right 👍.
•Why should anyone seat in his Comfort Zone and Spread lies and innuendos,just to tanish a Bank's Name and Image.
- Does this Blogger Knows about Reputational Damages?
• This is where we expect our Nigeria Police and even DSS - to Pick the man and borrow him a Sense!
It should be a Lesson to all these Nonsensical and Sensational News.
• Even President Trump - Wrote two days ago, in his Truth Platform - how False News is emanating from Nigeria on IRAN- War!
That is terrible 🥵.

Polaris bank is not going to die.
Trust me on that.

Since the last one week I have been unable to login to Polaris internet banking, mobile app (Vulte) and ussd channels. I have been unable to access my Salary, having made it my salary account.

Damage already done,have gone to withdrew all my phone out of the bank today.i don't want heritage Bank experience.

If the rag tag in the picture is behind the rumor, what are the relevant agencies doing then?

Just handover this goat to final year NDA students for tow days. When he survives, he will have a change of career.

Initial denial before acceptance
