Viral dollar spraying video at my daughter’s wedding mischievous ploy – Goje
Former Governor of Gombe State and Senator representing Gombe Central Senatorial District, Danjuma Goje has vehemently refuted a viral video depicting dollar been sprayed on a couple.
The couple, Fauziyya Goje and her groom, Aliyu Abubakar were joined in holy matrimony last Friday at the National Mosque, Abuja.
The occasion was graced by many prominent personalities including President Bola Tinubu, Senate President Godswill Akpabio, Speaker of the House of Representatives Tajuddeen Abbas, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, serving and former governors, serving and former members of the National Assembly, and the National Security Adviser, among others.
The Goje family reacting to the video, called it ridiculous
“A statement released said “On behalf of the respected Goje’s family, we categorically deny this mischievous allegation and consider it a blatant and calculated attempt to tarnish the image of the revered family and the esteemed guests who attended the ceremony”.
“It is, therefore, unthinkable and mischievous for disgruntled elements to share the viral dollar-spraying video depicting or insinuating the same to be part of the celebration of Fauziyya’s wedding. Goje’s family is revered and would never come so low to engage in or condone an activity that is contrary to the laws of Nigeria”.
“We want to state that the said bride and the groom seen in the viral video aren’t the newly wedded daughter of Danjuma Goje and her groom, and there’s no familiar face to the family. Thus, the video is not in anyway related to Goje and his entire family”.
“We believe this malicious video is the handiwork of mischief makers seeking to sabotage the successful ceremony and bring denigration to the entire family and its esteemed guests. We urge the public to disregard this baseless claim and appreciate the values of decency and respect that define our family”.
“Throughout the line of events to celebrate the wedding, there was no place where men and women were mixed. We appreciate the support and goodwill of friends, associates, and well-wishers during this joyous occasion”.
