Nigerian journalist and former presidential candidate, Dele Momodu has debunked rumour circulating about the death of Globacom founder, Mike Adenuga.

In an X post on Tuesday night, Momodu said he had a phone call with the reclusive billionaire.

He said Adenuga confirmed he was hale and hearty and thanked his well wishers.

“Ignore the fake news… The Spirit of Africa DR MICHAEL ADENIYI AGBOLADE ISOLA ADENUGA is hale and hearty. He’s right now at his desk working round the clock in support of the Nigerian economy… He just called me to thank everyone for their concern…,” Momodu said. (Daily Sun, excluding headline)
