Dele Momodu
Eko Hot Blog reports that social media users on Twitter descended on the Director of Strategic Communications of the presidential campaign council of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dele Momodu, for posting photoshopped campaign posters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) during the weekend.
The image he posted on his Instagram account shows the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar, and his running mate, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa with multiple messages.
The messages include, “WHEN WE RECOVER OUR ECONOMY WILL GROW” and “A VOTE FOR PDP IS A VOTE FOR NIGERIA TO RECOVER.”
The photoshopped image
The image shows various posters centered on a stadium.
Reacting to the image, a media aide to Governor Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State, Jubril Gawat, informed Momodu that he posted a photoshopped image of an APC campaign material.
The original image
According to Gawat, the original material was shot at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena (Onikan Stadium), a day before the flag-off of Sanwo-Olu’s campaign.
“Good day sir @DeleMomodu, The picture on that your IG post of 1 hour ago is our Beautiful Mobolaji Johnson Arena (Onikan Stadium), seems it was ‘mistakenly photoshopped’, we snapped the picture a day before Governor Sanwo-Olu’s FlagOff while setting up. Just for your info sir,” he tweeted.
A quick check by Eko Hot Blog through Momodu’s Instagram account showed the PDP chieftain has deleted the disputed image.
Meanwhile, Twitter users have been quick to react to the PDP campaign member’s misstep, with many condemning his action.
