Lagos State Government has refuted widespread online rumours claiming there has been a rise in kidnapping incidents along the Gbagada Expressway.
The misleading reports, shared through a flyer falsely presented as an official government notice, warned motorists about alleged abduction cases in the area.
The circulating message also claimed that criminals were using the ‘one chance’ method and operating through commercial vehicles to target unsuspecting residents.
Responding on his official X account on Friday, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Gboyega Akosile, posted: “Good morning Lagos, please beware of this fake news in circulation again! We’ve addressed it in the past, but purveyors of fakery are not tired of recycling this rubbish. Kindly ignore it. Thank you.”
Thank you for your sharing. I am worried that I lack creative ideas. It is your article that makes me full of hope. Thank you. But, I have a question, can you help me?
