FG Describes Asking Obi Cubana For Money As ‘Fake News’

The Federal government has debunked reports claiming it was considering borrowing money from businessman, Obi Cubana who buried his mother in a lavish burial ceremony recently.

Cubana hosted a talk of the nation funeral for his mum last Thursday and Friday. From the affluence displayed at the funeral, an online media posted an article suggesting that Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information,  had said that Cubana has such money and Nigeria is still going to China for a loan.

However, the Ministry of Information via its Facebook page on Sunday, July 18, denied the report and described it as “fake news.”
