Former Nigerian Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon has denied widespread rumour about his death, saying he is not in a hurry to join his maker.
Gowon,88, was said to be in London at the time the rumour spread like wildfire in Nigeria.
He debunked it via a short message delivered to newsmen through his personal aide Adeyeye Ajayi.
“I am still around and well. I am not in a hurry”, Ajayi quoted Gowon as saying.
The social media went wild Monday with the rumour that the former Nigerian leader, who reigned between 1966 and 1975, was dead.
