The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris said this in a statement on Tuesday while debunking a news report of a coup scare in the country.
Idris in a statement signed by Rabiu Ibrahim, his Special Assistant (Media) described the coup report as unequivocally false and a heinous act of disinformation.
According to the Minister, the coup report is the figment of the warped imagination of detractors, whose malicious intent is to destabilize the country and undermine the present administration
But he added that the government would neither be distracted nor intimidated into abandoning the ongoing reforms aimed at rejuvenating the economy and creating a pathway of prosperity for the citizenry.
The Minister said it is now evident that some desperate individuals have resorted to publishing fake news to erode public trust in the government and sow the seed of discord in the country.
Idris said the government will exercise its rights within the Federal Republic of Nigeria’s laws to contain rogue actions to destabilize national security and the nation’s hard-earned democracy.
He urged the public to exercise discernment and refrain from spreading or amplifying the unfounded report, which is being strategically planted on some pliant and compromised news platforms to subvert the nation’s democracy
