Social media reports claimed that Umara, a student at a university in New Delhi, attacked a Chinese man who showed interest in the same lady as the governor’s son at a nightclub.
However, Abdurrahman Ahmed Bundi, Senior Special Assistant to Governor Zulum on New Media, issued a statement on Wednesday dismissing these reports.
Bundi clarified that none of the governor’s sons had been arrested, charged with any crime, or engaged in unlawful activities anywhere.
He urged the public to be cautious about sharing unverified information on social media, and threatened legal action against those spreading the defamatory news.
In a video clip released on Thursday, Umara broke his silence, saying these allegations were attempts to damage his father’s reputation.
Governor’s Zulum’s son revealed that he was at the Government House in Maiduguri and not in detention or India.
Umara Zulum emphasized that the accusations were unfounded and aimed at harming his father’s reputation.
He said, “Dear esteemed Nigerians, I am Umar Babagana Umara Zulum, I am here to address damaging falsehood that had been made against me.
“It has come to my notice, a baseless gossip accusation against me saying that I killed someone at a nightclub. This is not true. They want to tarnish my father’s name. I have been with my family since two months now, right in Maiduguri.”
