The attention of TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) has been drawn to a deliberate attempt by some elements to malign and discredit our news platform over a video released by the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
It is instructive to note that TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) is a credible and number one go-to online news platform. We are reputable for breaking the news as it breaks and reputable for fair reportage of news. We carry out investigations and fact-check our work.
The unscrupulous elements alleged that TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) published a supposed video of Tinubu on the 18th of January, 2018, and then deleted it from the website, attaching a photoshopped search screenshot as proof.

If we published a post or video for that matter, and then later delete it, the link to such content will return a “404 Page Not Found” error. We have diligently carried out an audit on our website and nothing of such was published and thereafter deleted.
What we reported and which still reflects on the Work Out archive shared by the unscrupulous elements, is a video shared by Tinubu’s handlers via his verified Twitter handle.
Many have said I have died; others claim I have withdrawn from the presidential campaign.
Well… Nope.
This is the reality: I am strong, I am healthy and I am READY to serve Nigerians from Day One.#BAT23 pic.twitter.com/qqPkgSDYjs
