Senate President Godswill Obot Akpabio has denied reports that operatives of the Department of State Service, DSS, stormed National Assembly over alleged impeachment moves by lawmakers in the upper legislative chamber.
Akpabio informed Senators that his attention had been drawn to the reports during plenary on Wednesday.
He described the reports as fake.
The Senate President lamented that fake news was gradually taking over the media space.
“There no limit to what online publications cannot do. This is total fake news and the impeachment of principal officers did not arise and we are all here in the National Assembly without any controversial issues.
“I learnt that they could click an AI and news will start trending to drive traffic and I am sure the traffic for this fake news is massive by now,” he said.
The Senate President later referred the matter to the Committee on Special Duties for investigation.
The report of the investigation is to be presented to the Committee of the Whole within 24 hours.
