The United States Embassy in Nigeria has described as fake news reports making the rounds that the founder of Living Faith Church, Bishop Oyedepo was denied Visa by the embassy
The embassy took to its twitter handle @USEmbassyAbuja to announce that the news report which emanated from Thisday, was totally fake, urging Nigerians to defeat the fake news with the correct information.
However, the embassy, while flagging the news as fake neither said it has issued the Visa to the clergyman nor related what transpired at its office that led to the report making the rounds as reported by This Day.
The Embassy wrote: “#FalseNews Alert! Be advised, the reports making the rounds about a visa being denied to Nigerian Bishop Oyedepo are false. If you have seen this manufactured item in the media, help defeat this #misinformation by communicating to everyone that it is completely false.”
