The Minister of Interior, Hon. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, has firmly dismissed recent reports alleging the launch of a “Two Hundred Million Naira Bursary Scheme for Four Thousand Students of Ondo State Origin” by the Hon. (Dr.) Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo Foundation. In a statement released on Wednesday by Alao Babatunde, the Minister’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, the claims were described as entirely baseless and fabricated.

“This announcement being circulated online is nothing but a fabrication,” the Minister stated, urging the public to disregard the misinformation. He emphasized that the Hon. (Dr.) Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo Foundation has not initiated any such bursary scheme, and any news to the contrary should be treated with skepticism.

The statement also highlighted the dangers of spreading false information and underscored the importance of relying on verified sources for accurate updates. The public is advised to exercise caution and verify the authenticity of any news before sharing it.

Tunji-Ojo’s swift response aims to quell any confusion and prevent the spread of the false claims, reinforcing the need for responsible dissemination of information.
