The Presidency has revealed that President Muhammadu Buhari, his family, ministers, and the service chiefs are now targets of a new drive by those described as purveyors of fake news.

A statement issued by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, cited a news item, claiming that President Buhari is due for a 20-day trip to the United Kingdom, as one of such Fabrications

Alerting the general public to the new development and warning them to be discriminatory in consuming unverified stories, especially from the social media, Adesina noted that this is the only way to beat this new wave of attack.

He urged Nigerians to be wary of what they accept as credible information and to restrain themselves from sharing reports that have not been ascertained to be genuine.
