“Security agencies must urgently take action against fake news websites and platforms and the purveyors who fail to check the authenticity of the stories and make them go viral.

Press freedom and freedom of speech will not exist when some people can wake up and concoct their news and narratives without regard for truth. Fake news is simply licentiousness and must be criminalised,” said Onanuga.

The Renewed Hope Global had earlier debunked the news saying it was a “Fake News Alert: Ministers Not Sacked.”

Fake News Alert: Ministers Not Sacked, Ignore Phoenix’s False Report

This is to inform the general public that the story titled “BREAKING: Tinubu Sacks Ministers of Defence and Power”, published by Phoenix Browser, is completely false, misleading, and devoid of any factual basis. At no point has President Bola Ahmed Tinubu dismissed the Ministers of Defence or Power.

This falsehood, presented as breaking news, is nothing but reckless propaganda designed to misinform the public.

To set the record straight, the most recent cabinet changes announced in October 2024 did not include the Ministers of Defence or Power. Those affected were Ministers of Women Affairs, Tourism, Education, State for Housing and Urban Development, and Youth Development.

Furthermore, ten ministers were reassigned, and seven new nominees were presented for Senate confirmation, all of which were officially documented and widely reported by credible media platforms.

Nigerians are strongly advised to ignore the concocted report by Phoenix Browser. It is fake news, plain and simple, sensationalist hogwash that should be treated with the contempt it deserves.

Please depend on official government channels and trusted news outlets for accurate and verified information.”
