“I have nothing against Atiku, Peter Obi is not my enemy but JAGABAN is my choice,” Fayose was alleged to have tweeted.
Debunking the statement, Lere Olayinka, Fayose’s media aide described the report as fake news.
“It is not true. He never said anything like that. Disregard the fake news,” he said.
