Presidential aide, Temitope Ajayi, has dismissed a report (Not by MyNigeria) that President Bola Tinubu will be jetting out to the United States to meet with U.S Vice President J.D Vance.

In a post on X on Monday, Ajayi, who serves as the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, described the report as fake news.

He said even if Tinubu will be going to the White House, it won't be to meet with a Vice President.

Ajayi wrote, "There is a Sahara Reporters story that President Tinubu is going to the US on Tuesday to see US Vice President J.D Vance. That story is not true. I can see that the fake news by Sahara has become the basis for some uninformed commentaries since yesterday. If President Tinubu is going to the White House, he won't be going to see a Vice President."

The presidential aide said this amid threats from U.S President Donald Trump against alleged killing of Christians in Nigeria.

MyNigeria reported that Trump threatened that the U.S will storm Nigeria "Guns-a-blazing" if the Nigerian government does not stop the killings.

Meanwhile, Tinubu has dismissed claims of Christian genocide, saying Nigeria faces terrorism that knows no religion.
