‘No Sensible Person Will Believe This’

The Director-General of the World Trade Organization, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, has dismissed claims of helping the Biafra Republic Government secure a $57.5 billion loan from the World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Naija News reports that this follows a tweet credited to the Prime Minister of the Biafra Republic Government, Simon Ekpa.

The social media post claimed Okonjo agreed to secure a loan for the secessionist group to help form their government after December 2024.

In response, Okonjo, in a post via her X handle, described the statement as false and urged those seeking to misuse her name to desist from it.

She wrote, “I know no sensible person will believe what is contained in the outrageous tweet below but in these troubled times it is important to underscore that the statement is false. Again I enjoin all those seeking to misuse my name to desist!”

Reacting to the post, Simon Ekpa wrote, “Dear Madam @NOIweala, i never tweeted such, it is even surprising that you can tweet this because your name was mentioned, we have been tweeting about the Nigeria terrorism against your people and you never responded nor showed any remorse.

“Here you are, defending what nonentities did with your name, but have been mute about all the killings by the government you served. I congratulate you for always defending yourself and your integrity, even when they are photoshopped. It shows you are really a mother. Thank you for defending yourself but i never tweeted such thing, it is false and fake.”
