Anambra State Government Denies That There Is Any Restaurant Selling Human Flesh


The attention of the Anambra State Government  has been drawn to a false and malicious report circulating in social media over the purported closure by the Nigeria Police of a restaurant selling human flesh in Anambra state.
This story, as reprehensible and false as it is, was also published by a national daily which has since retracted it and apologised, having found it to be untrue.
The government of Anambra State having investigated the story and found same to be false hereby urges Ndi Anambra and friends of the state to ignore the said story as it is part of a wider smear campaign by disgruntled persons and enemies of progress who have been attempting to sabotage the fast paced visible infrastructural and social development going on in the state.
These individuals who go by various aliases on social media and in some other media platforms have continued to feed unsuspecting members of the public with lies about Anambra state, in the hope that they will distract the present administration.
It is instructive that the Public Relations Officer of the Nigeria Police, Anambra State Command, Uche Ezeh had in an earlier statement to the media debunked the false story.
Anambra State, the light of the nation is open for business and commercial activities, and hence now the destination of choice in Nigeria for investors looking for a government friendly investment climate, security, large market, attractive return on investment, skilled manpower and supporting infrastructure.
Signed.
Dr. Mrs Uju Nwogu
Honourable Commissioner for Information, Culture & Tourism
Anambra state
