The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission has dismissed as false a viral video alleging a ₦50 billion bribery scandal, describing the content as fabricated and, in parts, artificially generated to mislead the public.
In a statement issued on Monday, the commission said the video, which has been widely circulated online, has no connection whatsoever to the agency and does not reflect any ongoing investigation.
“The images, names, and content in the video are fabricated and, in some instances, AI-generated, designed solely to mislead unsuspecting members of the public,” said ICPC spokesperson J. Okor Odey.
The anti-corruption body stressed that it has not issued any report or statement backing the claims in the video, including the alleged involvement of any individual, Senior Advocate of Nigeria, group of lawyers, or judicial officer.
