Minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun has dissociated herself from a fake Twitter handle that tweeted 'Recession is just a word and would soon be a thing of the past' a few days ago. The finance minister was blasted for the tweet, which she has now denied tweeting. Adeosun made the denial in a statement released by her Special Assistant on Media, Festus Akanbi. The statement reads;
“The attention of the Honourable Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun, has been drawn to a fake Twitter handle in her name saying that ‘recession is just a word. For the avoidance of doubt, the Honourable Minister does not own a Twitter account. The Twitter handle currently trending, and any other twitter handle presently in existence is not, and cannot be that of the Honourable Minister, as a twitter account has not yet been set up for her. It is obviously fake and does not represent the views and opinions of the Honourable Minister. Also at no time did the Honourable Minister, who addressed the media immediately after Wednesday’s Federal Executive Council, make such a statement. The Minister has consistently demonstrated empathy for the plight of Nigerians hard hit by dwindling oil prices and the impact on the economy”.
Not like we expected you to own your words! #Liar

ReplyDeleteStory, she should stop lying, other politicians follow her on that handle, and she claims it's fake? Why was it that it was when she started getting blasted it stated that the account was a parody account? If it was actually a parody account as she claimed, the person won't care if she's being bashed or not, besides the official link to the ministry of finance is in the bio on that account, i'm sure they will go and remove it too, mad people.

ReplyDeleteSMH! So the account isn't verified or known to be hers ,but it was still carried?

ReplyDeleteSharap dia, minister of recession.
ReplyDeleteOk o
ReplyDeleteIt's interesting to read some of the comments here. I'm also surprised at the backlash on the minister of finance. can i point out that the bad decisions and corruption of past governments have put us in recession.It is not the minister's fault. Besides i thought our valuable time will be spent looking for a way out of this recession. Move on people!!!! it is not the finance minister's fault!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBia nne, our economy no dey hear all this ya queens english. Speak like Ngozi Okonjo to this economy weda e no go beta.
ReplyDeleteDiploma Kemi of East London Poly is a liar. A terrible liar. She said it and she tweeted it. Her twitter account is run by the VP's crew, VP tells DipKem what to say. Bunch of apc liars.
ReplyDeleteIf I may ask, must everybody in this government be a liar?, why can't any of them be truthful for once. Pastors, professors, ministers all dishonest.
ReplyDeleteThis Lass is so incompetent that you need her picture to define the word INCOMPETENT.
