ABEOKUTA — The Ogun State Police Command has said a viral video circulating on social media and being linked to Ogun State did not originate from the state.

In a statement issued by the Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Oluseyi Babaseyi, the command said its preliminary findings indicated that the footage was not recorded in Ogun State or elsewhere in Nigeria.

According to the statement, available information and independent verification efforts suggest that the video was recorded outside Nigeria and had previously appeared online before being recirculated with a different narrative.
