Chief Willie Obiano is not dead. The former Governor of Anambra State is alive, hale, and hearty. A statement issued on his behalf by Paul Nwosu, PhD, confirms that Chief Obiano is in excellent health and has personally reassured his family members, friends, political associates, and supporters that there is absolutely no cause for alarm.
The rumour circulating on social media claiming that he has passed away is completely false and should be dismissed by the public. Chief Obiano has made it clear that there is no truth in the story, and he remains grateful to everyone who reached out in concern.
The statement condemns those responsible for spreading the fake news, describing it as a reckless act of mischief aimed at creating panic and attracting cheap online attention. Such behaviour, it notes, is unacceptable and deeply regrettable.
The public is therefore urged to disregard the rumour entirely. Chief Willie Obiano remains well, in good spirits, and appreciative of the goodwill, prayers, and support shown during this moment of unnecessary misinformation.
