Senator Solomon Adeola Olamilekan
Nigerian lawmaker, Senator Solomon Adeola Olamilekan, has debunked reports claiming he described the Igbos as the problem of Nigeria.
The Senator representing Lagos West Senatorial district denied this statement via a press release issued by his media adviser, Kayode Odunaro on Friday.
The statement read, “The attention of Senator Solomon Adeola (APC, Lagos West) and Chairman of Senate Committee on Finance has been drawn to a fake news item making the rounds on social media platforms to the effect that he said Igbos are the problem of Nigeria.
“On a good day the false fabrication that originated from a fake Facebook account of one suspected ‘Obidient’ “Ifeanyi Darlington Mcipm” would have been ignored as the shenanigan of an ungrounded activist trying to gain undue mileage for their principal from social media manipulation,” it said.(Daily Independent)
