Adamawa CAN Chairman Urges Residents To Disregard Rumour Of Killing …Says I’m Safe, Alive
The Adamawa State leadership of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has urged the general public to disregard report circulating on the social media claiming that the its Chairman was beheaded, describing the report as fake.
CAN chairman in the state, Rev. Joel Danjuma Manzo, in a statement he personally signed in Yola and made available to journalists on Saturday, described the report as “fake and baseless”.
Manzo said peddlers of such stories on the social media were agents of the underworld who were out to smear the image of the government and the security agencies.
He added that their intention was to cause confusion in the already fragile atmosphere in the country.
“The general public should therefore disregard such fake information thus, the state CAN Chairman is in good health and busy going about his official engagement in the state without any threat fear or intimidation.”
Rev Manzo also called on the security agencies in the state to investigate the source of the fake report and apprehend the perpetrators.
He further described the action of the perpetrators as not only dangerous to the security, unity and peace of the state and nation at large but amounts to an affront to the efforts of state government in engendering enduring peace, unity and securing lives and properties of citizens.
