The Presidency has dismissed as false and highly misleading viral online claims suggesting that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu plans to initiate constitutional amendments to rename Nigeria to the “United States of Nigeria.”
In a swift media intervention, the federal government also debunked widespread reports alleging a secret executive plan by the President to completely abolish Sharia law in the Northern region.
The Presidency described the viral fabrications as a deliberate, calculated attempt by desperate political actors to create sharp division, trigger structural instability, and inflame religious tensions ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The official denials and public assurances were contained in a strongly worded statement released by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.

According to the executive statement, President Tinubu has absolutely no plans whatsoever to sponsor any proposed legislation code-named ‘Project True Federation.’
The administration cautioned citizens to remain vigilant against digital disinformation.
“The Presidency wishes to inform Nigerians and state clearly that there is no truth to the viral fake story claiming that President Bola Tinubu seeks to carry out constitutional amendments that will change Nigeria’s name to the United States of Nigeria and abolish Sharia Law in the Northern region, among other claims,” the official statement read.
The Presidency urged Nigerians across all geopolitical zones to disregard the report entirely, labeling the anonymous authors behind the publication as agents of destabilization and merchants of disorder.
Onanuga noted that the president remains strictly focused on implementing his administration’s economic reforms and delivering tangible infrastructural benefits to citizens rather than engaging in divisive political distractions.
