The gold plated iPhone5 photo circulating online is fake!

The pic of the iPhone above has been circulated online
with a few blogs alleging that the Federal Government has
taken delivery of the 53 gold plated iPhones to celebrate
Nigeria's 53rd anniversary tomorrow. I'm not particularly a
fan of this government but photoshopping a pic to make a
false story look true is probably not the way forward. The
federal govt has denied ordering these phones, the UK
company, Gold and Co of London, also denied and
denounced the story.
Find the original photo and the Photoshopped version
above. Reacting to the fake phone photo, Reno Omokri,
Special Assistant (New Media) to the President said;
Let me make it clear that President Goodluck
Jonathan is a simple man who has ensured that all
independence anniversary celebrations under his
watch have been low key inexpensive events in
keeping with his policy of avoiding wasteful
expenditures.
These stories and others like it are sponsored by those
who would like to distract President Jonathan from
the task of Transformation of which he has committed
himself and this administration. It is a disservice to all
of us if we sit back while these disgruntled elements
get away with lies without exposing them and their
cohorts.
