The Minister of Solid Minerals Development, Dele Alake, has raised alarm about someone impersonating him on social media.
The Minister, through a press release by his Special Assistant on Media, Segun Tomori, identified the number being used by the impostor along with a picture of the Minister as +234 707 743 7582.
The statement warned that the number is not connected to Alake, his assistants, or anybody else working in the minister’s office.
While urging members of the public to disregard any communication from the number, Alake added that the matter has been reported to security agents to apprehend the culprit.
The media aide said: “This is the handiwork of an impostor. The Minister urges the public to disregard any correspondence or communication supposedly from him through the said contact number.
“This serves as a disclaimer while we work with the security agencies to identify the culprit and bring upon him the full weight of the law.”
