Nigerians living in the United Kingdom (UK) under the banner of the UK chapter of Nigerians in Diaspora Monitoring Group (NDMG) have condemned the rumoured death of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Recall that over the weekend, there were reports published by some sectors of the media, stating that the president who had gone for vacation had given up the ghost.
The group in a statement by its coordinator, Engr. Adekaa Onyilo described the statement as the handiwork of corrupt and unpatriotic individuals.

According to Onyilo, those behind the rumour do not mean well for Nigeria and such rumour reveals the depth to which morals have sunken.
He said, “The irresponsible news could only have been floated by those that want to see Nigeria go up in flames. Unfortunately, they failed to realize that the change and reforms initiated by Mr President would outlive everyone since they are targeted at strengthening institutions and building systems.
“We therefore want to warn the purveyors of such rumors to desist as their act affect more than president Buhari. At a time when our dear country is working to contain the pressure on the naira, their action has served to further spook the currency and shake investors’ confidence. When this happens, citizens that played no role in starting the lies would suffer for it.”
