00:00Information from the office of the special advisor to the Nigerian president, Bayo Onanuga has shown apparent strong indications that
00:08the federal government under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tanubu may use the act of trumped up allegation to
00:14harass, intimidate, arrest and detain one of the president anti-2027 re-election activists who is also the president and
00:23founder of the racial movements, Martins Vincent Otz aka Avery Duckman,
00:27following a widely circulated acclaimed leaked telephone voice record of President Bola Ahmed Tanubu wherein the president was portrayed to
00:36have made statements capable of causing anarchy in the country, instigating and inciting the people against the president in a
00:44manner that can collapse the government and cause uncontrollable deaths.
00:47This, the presidential spokesperson, Bayo Onanuga seems to have wrongly or deliberately attributed the dissemination of the acclaimed leaked telephone
00:57voice record to Vareed Duckman in a tweet the presidential spokesperson issued via X social media platform at about 11am
01:05on Wednesday morning, which, the presidential spokesperson said,
01:09This VDM needs to face the weight of the law for being the conveyor and disseminator of a fake audio
01:15of President Tanubu, this is a clear case of an egregious abuse of the social media platform.
01:20A careful study of some news media reports over the acclaimed leaked telephone audio record, shows, some of the media
01:29attributed the dissemination and the origin of the acclaimed leaked telephone record to Vareed Duckman,
01:34But none of the media companies was able to satisfy the basic principles or standards of news writing and publishing,
01:41which requires the media companies to provide or state when and where Vareed Duckman disseminated such information, an action that
01:49shows there may be high-level conspiracy to arrest and keep the anti-government activist in a perpetual detention till
01:56after 2027 general elections with possible trumped-up allegations of treasonable count charges or alleged acts.
02:04To endanger national security, for the purpose of clarity, for the purpose of clarity, trumped-up allegation, according to Cambridge
02:10Online Dictionary, it is an allegation that is, deliberately based on false information so that someone will be accused of
02:17doing something wrong and punished.
02:19Our investigation indicates that a video published by Vareed Duckman via his Instagram account on Tuesday May 26, 2026 about
02:28President Bola Ahmed Tanubu 2023 pre-election campaign promises,
02:34wherein, the president had said if he does not give Nigerian stable power or electricity supply in his first four
02:41years in office, the people should not vote for him for the second time,
02:45The video published by Vareed Duckman while in China seems to be the one suspicious mischief makers altered and inserted
02:52the acclaimed leap telephone voice record of President Bola Ahmed Tanubu to create apparent false and misleading information capable of
03:01causing anarchy in the country with obvious intention to give the government the opportunity to harass, intimidate, arrest and detain
03:08the anti-government activist.
03:10Vareed Duckman till after the 2027 general elections. Verbatim, in quotes, Sahara reporters reported that, the Nigerian presidential aide, Bayo
03:21Onanuga, has lashed out at social media influencer, Martins Vincentotts, popularly known as BDM, over the circulation of what he
03:30described as a fake audio recording purportedly linked to President Bola Tanubu, insisting that the matter should attract legal consequences.
03:38In a statement issued on Wednesday, May 27, 2026, Onanuga accused VDM of abusing social media platforms through the dissemination
03:48of false information capable of misleading the public and damaging the image of the president.
03:53This VDM needs to face the weight of the law for being the conveyor and disseminator of a fake audio
04:00of President Tanubu.
04:02This is a clear case of an egregious abuse of the social media platform, Onanuga stated.
04:08The controversy followed a video posted earlier by Martins Vincentotts, also known as VDM, in which he claimed to have
04:16obtained an audio recording allegedly featuring President Tanubu speaking on the country's political situation, insecurity, and the 2027 elections.
04:26Introducing the recording in the video, VDM said, after this audio that I am about to play, I would ask
04:33if they cook Nigerians who will support Tanubu in 2027 or you guys are okay.
04:39The audio clip played in the video allegedly featured Tanubu making controversial remarks regarding attempts to remove him from office,
04:47insecurity in the southeast, and borrowing from the World Bank.
04:51In the purported recording, the voice alleged to be that of the president said,
04:56They have been trying to take me out of the position but it's not possible, mind you I am winning
05:01this election, I do not care whatever is happening, Nigerians deserve it.
05:06The voice in the audio further stated,
05:09Because when I was running as a president, they did not want me, now all of a sudden they want
05:14me to rescue them from insecurity.
05:17Another section of the recording allegedly quoted the president as saying,
05:20I called Peter Obi to step down for me but he refused.
05:24I am not begging him again, I will do whatsoever in my mind and I will make sure the insecurity
05:31affects the people in southeast more.
05:34The purported audio also contained comments about foreign loans and insecurity, claiming,
05:40Listen I am going to borrow more and more money from the World Bank, I won't like to stop this
05:46insecurity because if I do, how will our party be able to win elections, think about it, even the loans
05:53I am taking is to fund them.
05:55However, Onanuga dismissed the audio as fabricated and accused VDM of deliberately spreading falsehood.
06:02The presidential aide maintained that the circulation of manipulated or unverified materials on social media poses serious dangers to public
06:12trust, national security, and democratic stability.
06:15The presidency has not indicated whether legal proceedings would immediately be initiated against the social media influencer.
06:24Martins Vincent is yet to also react to Bayo Onanuga's statement as of the time of filing this report.
06:30Sahara Reporter's news report ends in quotes.
06:54They've been trying to take me out from the position, but it's not possible.
06:58Now, mind you, I'm winning this election.
07:00I don't care whatever is happening.
07:03Nigeria deserves it.
07:04Because when I was running as a president, they didn't want me.
07:10Now, all of a sudden, they want me to rescue them from insecurity.
07:18As of last week, I called Peter Ubi to step down for me, but he refused.
07:23Now, I'm not begging him again.
07:25I will be whatsoever in my mind, and I will make sure the insecurity affects people in Southeast more.
07:35Listen, I am going to borrow more and more and more money from World Bank.
07:39Try to understand me.
07:40I wouldn't like to stop this insecurity.
07:43Because if I do, how will our party be able to raise funds to win elections?
07:49Think about it.
07:50Even the loans I'm taking is to fund them.
07:52Also, I have planned after I'm done with my position as a president.
07:57You are failed.
07:59So, talking about jazz, except if they use jazz, and even if they use jazz on Nigerians,
08:03time don't retreat, you say you will tap yourself.
08:05You will go wash your body again, make you understand, say, this man does not have anything
08:09to offer.
08:10Come 2027.
08:11Any other option is welcome.
08:12Well, for me, myself and I, for example, all of a mental book cannot offer us anything anymore.
08:18So, it should go.
08:19It should go.
08:20It should go.
08:21All of a mental book, it should go.
08:24Listen, Lord.
08:24I will talk on my mind.
08:26I will talk on my mind, bro.
08:27You will not get hurt.
08:29You will not get hurt.
08:29You see that thing, why are you the rear for neck, eh?
08:31You know the rear for neck, you're going to do anything.
08:33You know the rear for neck, you don't go put jazz for them.
08:34Why people know the...
08:35You know where the gold shrine.
08:36You don't go put jazz for your neck.
08:37All right.
08:38So, talking about using jazz, I'm going to shrine.
08:41You see this next video I'm about to play.
08:44After you people watch it, we'll come decide whether in a shrine they don't cook on our mind.
08:49All the people who won't support Bolan Metinubu 2027, we'll come know whether they
08:53don't cook your mind so you don't go get sense or whichever whichever way by all means necessary.
09:10You must have electricity.
09:14And you will not pay for estimated bill anymore.
09:29A promise made will be a promise kept.
09:33If I can't keep the promise and you, and I come back for a second time, don't fall for me.
09:44That's the truth.
09:47You heard him.
09:49This was when he was doing his campaign.
09:51He said a promise made will be a promise kept.
09:54That if he does not give Nigerians electricity, after four years they should not vote for him.
09:58So, it's not like I'm campaigning against him.
10:01I am going, I am putting his words against him.
10:03So, there's no way we don't have electricity.
10:06As a matter of fact, let me even show you.
10:08For the very first time, since the inception, since the creation of Nigeria and the creation of ASO ROG,
10:15for the very first time, as you can see, ASO ROG to exit National Grid by March 2026.
10:24Then, look at this one.
10:25ASO ROG opting for 10 billion NERA solar questions presidents believe in National Grid.
10:30So, as of today, this was in March, April, within May.
10:33As of today, they don't abandon ASO ROG where President Bola met in NERA solar that they use now.
10:40They don't abandon National Grid.
10:42So, whatever happened, don't concern anybody.
10:44And to be very, very honest, in Nigeria of today, people don't even care about the light anymore.
10:50That's why people are opting out for solar.
10:53People, they opt out for solar.
10:55Nah, they try that.
10:58Nah, power station went out.
11:00Can they come back now?
11:01At least, we will help people.
11:02Nah, they bring home.
11:04Young, some people don't, they give up.
11:06So, you made a promise that if you cannot give electricity to Nigerians,
11:10they should not vote you in the coming term.
11:12So, that is what Nigerians are going to follow.
11:14This is not say, oh, very dark.
11:15No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
11:17I get a lot of your clips and everything you promised.
11:19You have failed.
11:21You have failed.
11:22So, talking about jazz, except if they use jazz, and even if they use jazz on Nigerians,
11:26time, don't reach out to say, you will tap yourself.
11:28You will go wash your body again, make your understanding, say,
11:31this man does not have anything to offer.
11:33Come 2027.
11:34Any other option is welcome.
11:36But for me, myself and I,
11:38for example, all I met in the book cannot offer us anything anymore.
11:41So, it should go.
11:43It should go.
11:44It should go.
11:44All I met in the book, it should go.
11:47Peace and love.
11:48Don't play.
