The Federal Government has urged Nigerians and the international community to discountenance media reports alleging that one of the late Muammar Gaddafi’s sons, Mr. Saadi Gaddafi, was residing somewhere in Nigeria.
The Minister of Information, Mr. Labaran Maku, who said this in a statement in Abuja, noted that security checks showed that the reports were false.
He said there was no truth in the reports, noting that they were unfounded and capable of causing confusion in the polity.

Maku said there was no evidence to suggest that Gaddafi’s son was residing or issuing statements from anywhere in Nigeria.
``The position of the Federal Government on Libya is unambiguous. It is therefore misleading for the media to speculate that Saadi Gaddafi is taking refuge in Nigeria,” the News Agency of Nigeria quoted the minister as saying in the statement.
He urged the media to always cross check their facts before going public with such sensitive reports, saying that they could have negative diplomatic and security implications.
