The Photoshop That Fooled 170 Million Nigerians by Hanendez(op): 4:14pm On Mar 06, 2016
Back in 2008,during the health saga of the late President Musa Yar'adua, Nigerians where all confined in the dark over the then president's true state of wellness.With different media outfits reporting conflicting and inconsistent news with regard to his whereabouts,Nigerians were stunned when this photo purportedly showing the president in an undisclosed hospital looking quite dishevelled and famished.At the time,most Nigerians bought this deception and ran with the story.The photo went viral and became a lasting vestige of that dark era.Later, the lie photo was exposed for what it truly was,'A malicious act of character assassination.'

This man would have been the best thing that ever happened to Nigeria as a country. His vision for this country was very clear and positive except that death took him away from us.
Unlike some that are on revenge mission on Nigerians for failing three times on elections and it's finally back to turn the country upside down hoping to make it better soon. What he doesn't know is that he has about 1,195 days remaining in office.

Re: The Photoshop That Fooled 170 Million Nigerians by Mckandre(m):
Who in his or her right sense would buy that illicit pics as the real state of yar'adua ? could u Look at the rusted bunk bed, torn cloth. That can never pass as the type of hospital a Nigeria top man would be admitted in, talk more of mr president. Haba, Nigerians may be poor but one thing I know for sure ; we Nigerians get taste. those that believed in that deserved to be shot.
