Former President Goodluck Jonathan has warned Nigerians to be wary of a fake Instagram account that is impersonating him online. In a statement released by his media aide, Ikechukwu Eze, Jonathan distanced himself from the account and clarified that he does not operate any Instagram profile.
The statement revealed that the fraudulent account has been posting content while falsely presenting itself as an official platform of the former president. Some of the posts were reportedly copied from Jonathan's verified Facebook page to make the account appear authentic.
Jonathan urged the public and the media to disregard any information, messages, or posts originating from the impersonating account, emphasizing that it does not represent him in any capacity. He also advised Nigerians to refrain from sharing or promoting content from the account, warning that fraudsters could use such platforms to deceive unsuspecting individuals.
The former president reiterated that his verified communication channels remain his official social media platforms and called on the public to remain vigilant against online impersonation and misinformation.
