The
pic of the iPhone on the left has been circulated online with a few blogs
alleging that the Federal Government has taken delivery of the 53 gold plated
iPhones to celebrate Nigeria’s 53rd anniversary tomorrow. I’m not particularly
a fan of this government but photoshopping a pic to make a false story look
true is probably not the way forward. The federal govt has denied ordering
these phones, the UK company, Gold and Co of London, also denied and denounced
the story.
Find the original photo and the Photoshopped
version above. Reacting to the fake phone photo, Reno Omokri, Special Assistant
(New Media) to the President said;

Let me make it
clear that President Goodluck Jonathan is a simple man who has ensured that all
independence anniversary celebrations under his watch have been low key
inexpensive events in keeping with his policy of avoiding wasteful
expenditures.
These stories and
others like it are sponsored by those who would like to distract President
Jonathan from the task of Transformation of which he has committed himself and
this administration. It is a disservice to all of us if we sit back while these
disgruntled elements get away with lies without exposing them and their
cohorts.
