Claiming: “The Governor of the State IMO hopes that Uzodinma will pray that the Ball President Ahmed Tinubu must die before the 2027 General Election …”

Indictment: Misleading.

Facebook page has claimed That a video shows the Governor of the State IMO praying for the death of President Tinubu ahead of the 2027 National Election.

The page distributed clips showing the ruling state governor of the state handling the audience.

This clip was given the title: “The Governor of the State IMO hopes that Uzordima will pray that the Ball President Ahmed Tinibu must die before the 2027 General Election so that he can become President of the Republic of Federal Nigeria”.

The clip was posted twice in the yard, which has more than 6 thousand followers, many of them tend to see the post later.

Ripples Nigeria reported that after the death of the former President of Muhammadu Buhari, many Nigerians had declared diverse reactions to the news of the former head of state who died at the London Hospital.

While many Nigerian leaders and citizens mourn over Buhari, some stated displeasure in commemorating the administration of 8 years that were marked by extraordinary events.

However, the clip review did not show the Governor of the State of IMO who hoped for the death of President Tinubu.

Ripples Nigeria observed that while Governor of Uzodinma mentioned “former football president” in a phrase, he was repaired by saying “President of Buhari”.

He has said: “May the soul of the former President of the Soccer … President Muhammadu Buhari … rest peacefully.”

The part in which the governor has a tongue during his speech is cut and distributed virally online to support claims.

Ripples Nigeria previously reported that the governor, such as the President of the Senate Godswill Akpabio, was crazy.

The claim that the Governor of Uzodinma hoped that the death of President Tinubu before the 2027 National Election to replace him was misleading.

The video shows the governor has a tongue, by mentioning the name of President Tinubu, not Buhari, but immediately correct the mistake.
