The Office of former President Goodluck Jonathan has disowned a trending Instagram account operating under the handle @goodluck_ebelejonathan, declaring it as fake and an impersonation.

Eze noted that the deceptive account had frequently alternated its identity, masking itself as a fan page while predominantly impersonating the former president to mislead unsuspecting members of the public.

“May the public take note that the account represents itself as a fan page at times and impersonates the former president most of the time.

“The username has been changed 13 times and counting, and we hope that Meta does the needful in due time,” he said. (NAN)
