I write to dissociate my self from a post on Kogi Reports, dated 20th May, 2018, sent from my e-mail address and bearing my name. By all means, this is a very serious cyber crime from some one I trusted and asked to e-mail pictures from my mining site through his phone at that time. The young man, called Abdulkadir Lawal, never sought my consent before sending the mischievous posts riddled with pedestrian English, which can never have come from me.
The culprit was simply trying to use my name as a Consultant to the National Assembly to curry favour from his pay masters, without realizing the very serious consequences of this clear cut case of cyber crime.
For the records, I am an indigene of Plateau State, an apolitical technocrat, who has never met the said Tim Dichie. As such it will amount to blatant falsehood for me to endorse some one I do not know from Adam, and who hails from a State that does not even share a boundary with my State.
It is hoped that Kogi Reports will publish this disclaimer to set the records straight and to safe guard your reputation.
I am writing now because all my efforts to reach the culprit and demand a retraction by him have proved abortive.
