Nigeria's president denies claims he's dead
Nigeria's president on Sunday denied claims that he had died and been replaced by an imposter.
“It’s real me, I assure you. I will soon celebrate my 76th birthday and I will still go strong,” President Muhammadu Buhari said to Nigerians during a town hall session while in Poland, according to Reuters.
Buhari was in the European country for a conference.
In 2017, Buhari spent about five months in Great Britain receiving treatment for an undisclosed illness. A theory began to surface that Buhari had actually died and been replaced by a Sudanese imposter.
While there was no evidence to support the claims, videos related to the topic shared on social media have received thousands of views.
