Director General of the National Centre for Arts and Culture (NCAC), Otunba Segun Rusewe, has described as ‘malicious,’ attempts by some unknown persons to impersonate him through a fake social media account created on the LinkedIn micro-blogging platform.
The fake social media account on LinkedIn which carries the portrait of Otunba Runsewe as profile picture, according to the NCAC boss, ‘was created with intent to impersonate him and also to defraud unsuspecting Nigerians.’
Runsewe disowned the fake platform, even as he assured that ‘does not own or operate any social media account for now.’
“Our attention has been drawn to a malicious Linkedin account with the username Otunba Runsewe with the DG’s Official portrait. We wish to state clearly that Otunba Olusegun Runsewe does not own or operate any social media account for now.
