Nigerians express outrage over the misinformation spread by Bayo Onanuga, President Tinubu's spokesperson, regarding the alleged removal of the UAE visa ban.
Nigerians condemn the irresponsible act, accusing Onanuga of misleading the public and damaging the credibility of the government. One commenter highlights the contradiction within the media team, posting a document only to issue a disclaimer later.
Many demand accountability, questioning Onanuga's competence and suggesting he should be relieved of his duties. The incident is deemed a significant own goal, making comparisons to other government spokespersons. The general sentiment reflects frustration with what is perceived as propaganda and fake news from government officials.
The controversy underscores the potential consequences of disseminating unauthorized information, particularly when it involves diplomatic matters. Nigerians call for transparency and responsible communication from government representatives, emphasizing the impact such actions have on the nation's image and public trust.
