Senator Ned Nwoko, the Senator representing Delta North Senatorial District of Delta State in the Senate has refuted reports claiming that he died in Switzerland.

The Federal lawmaker, in a statement, also vowed to take legal action against those he accused of peddling lies and rumours about him.

According to him, the reports were entirely false and a malicious attempt to dent his character.

Nwoko said: ”In recent weeks, I have also been subjected to unwarranted insults and accusations regarding the purchase of a car for a little content creator.

“These claims are baseless and misleading. Whether this is a misguided joke or a deliberate act of malice, it has gone too far and will not be tolerated.

“I am taking immediate legal action against those spreading these falsehoods. Arrests will be made, and anyone involved should be prepared to face the consequences. This is not a matter of influence; it is about holding those responsible accountable for their harmful actions.

“I will not tolerate any attempts to malign my character or to downplay the seriousness of this situation.

“If you are involved in these activities, expect to face legal repercussions without delay.”
