The Management of DAAR Communications Plc has dissociated itself from a Facebook Account purportedly being operated by the organisation.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, the management of the company said: “A report was published on the Facebook that the incumbent President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, President Muhammadu Buhari who is currently on vacation in London has passed on.

“We wish to state the following facts:

“It is falsehood dressed up as truth that we opened such Facebook Account.

“We did not publish nor know anything about the report.

“None of our Correspondents in London filed such report.

“The Editorial Policy of our Organization is that any of our Correspondents is mandated to file all their reports for vetting and approval before publication which can only originate from our headquarters.

“No Correspondent could individually on his or her own decision publish or cause to be published any story.

“The Facebook Account is the brainchild of a faceless and mischievous group whose despicable activities must be investigated by security agencies because of the unpleasant consequences.

“We wish to state that AIT runs an official on-line site for News which is not available for use by outsiders.

“We dissociate ourselves completely from anything contained in the said report which is a figment of the imagination of the authors.

“We also disown the so-called Facebook Account, and have officially reported to Facebook Managers.”
