FG Disproves National Honours Nominees list In Circulation, To Publish Real List Soon

The alleged list of candidates for national honours being passed around by several internet media outlets has been called fraudulent by the Federal Government as of Monday.

The media was flooded with a number of names that were allegedly on the list of Nigerians who will be honoured with national honours.

However, the list of nominations has drawn criticism, particularly about the quality of those up for honours. The list of nominees has now gone viral on the Internet.

Meanwhile, in a statement signed by the Director Press, Federal Ministry of Special Duties and Intergovernmental Affairs, Julie Jacobs, the government debunked the list saying it will publish the list at the appropriate time and medium

The statement read: “The attention of the Federal Ministry of Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Affairs has been drawn to a purported list of nominees for National Honours being circulated by some online media organisations.

“While it is true that President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR, will be conferring National Honours on deserving Nigerians and friends of Nigeria on 11th October, 2022, the authentic list of nominees is yet to be released to the public. The Federal Ministry of Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Affairs will publish the list at the appropriate time and medium.

“Members of the public are hereby enjoined to discountenance the list in circulation as it is an attempt by overzealous reporters whose aim is to break news even when such news is fake.”

Below is the nomination list disapproved of President Muhammadu Buhari.

1. Sen. Ahmad Ibrahim Lawan, PhD President of the Senate (Yobe) 2. Hon. Justice Olukayode Ariwoola CJN (Oyo) 3. Hon. Justice Ibrahim Tanko Muhammad CJN (Bauchi) 4. Dr. Ngozi Okonjo Iweala DG WTO (Abia) 5. Ms. Amina J. Mohammed UN, Deputy Secretary General (Gombe)
