The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has dismissed a viral “Wanted Person” bulletin circulating online, which falsely claimed that Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo is wanted by the Office of the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Monitoring Unit.
In a statement released Thursday via its official X handle, the Force clarified that the publication did not originate from the police and urged the public to disregard it.
The NPF cautioned citizens and media outlets to rely solely on verified information from official police channels, warning against the dangers of spreading misinformation.
It further disclosed that an investigation has been launched to trace the source of the forged document and bring those responsible to justice.
As of press time, Iyabo Ojo, a prominent actress and filmmaker, has not issued any public response to the fake bulletin.
