Following rumours of his death, veteran Nollywood actor, Alhaji Yinka Quadri, has opened up to dispel the rumours and trending misleading video.
Quadri, who is currently on a film location in a telephone chat with Tayo Aderinola, urged the Government to do the needful to curb fake news across the country.
He said, “Family and friends have been calling me since two days ago to confirm if I am alive. It’s unfortunate that some young guys would deliberately post fake news on social media because they want followers to trend”.
“They even have the guts to spread fake report about the President, governors and celebrities just to get followers on social media.”
The popular actor hopes to incident the case with the Police so as to get to the root of the matter and possibly prosecute the perpetrators of the wicked act in order to serve as a deterrent to others.
He thanked members of his family and fans for their sincere concern.
