Muhammed Babangida Embraces BOA Role, Debunks Rejection Rumors
Muhammed Babangida has firmly accepted his appointment as Chairman of the Bank of Agriculture (BOA), shutting down swirling online rumors that he turned down the position.
In a press statement released on Monday, Babangida expressed profound gratitude to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the opportunity, describing the appointment as a call to national service.
“Muhammed gratefully accepts the appointment and extends his sincere appreciation to President Tinubu for the trust and confidence reposed in him,” the statement affirmed.
The statement also addressed a wave of misinformation spreading across social media, labeling reports of a rejection as "false, malicious, and misleading."
“These fabrications are a calculated attempt to sow distrust and undermine the integrity of the Tinubu administration,” it continued.
Babangida’s team further emphasized that those responsible for peddling the false claims will be investigated and held accountable, reaffirming a commitment to transparency, accountability, and national unity.
As disinformation continues to cloud public discourse, the statement urged Nigerians to verify information through credible sources before drawing conclusions.
Muhammed Babangida’s role at BOA is part of a broader wave of strategic leadership appointments approved by President Tinubu to revitalize key government institutions and drive economic development, especially in the agricultural sector.
