The founder of the Transformation Ambassador of Nigeria (TAN), Ifeanyi Ubah has rebuffed reports circulating in the media that there was an assassination attempt on his life over the weekend.
According to the rumour mills, an aide of Dr. Ubah was killed in the attempt on his life.
Debunking the report via a statement made available to The Trent, an friend of Ubah, Deji Adeyanju said the CEO of Capital Oil was in Taraba State on Sunday, May 10, 2015 where he had gone to watch his team, Ifeanyi Ubah F.C play a football match.
The statement reads in full:
“Just early this morning, news of an assassination attempt on the life of the founder of Transformation Ambassador of Nigeria (TAN) Dr. Patrick Ifeanyi was all over social media and we have reason to debunk this as it is not true but a figment of the imagination of mischief makers. They even reported that one of his aides was killed in the assassination attempt.
“Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah is hale and hearty. He was in Taraba just yesterday as he went to watch his football club, Ifeanyi Ubah FC. He is in high spirit and enjoying himself. He was even interviewed by the AIT crew on ground at the stadium.
“The story is not true and should be disregarded. I spoke with him just now and he has asked me to make these clarifications.”
