But, amid the social media spat between the two groups of Nigerians occasioned by false claims and counter-claims, Okonjo-Iweala took to her verified Twitter handle again on Saturday evening to debunk the allegations against her.
She shared more photographs she took at the Summit with President Tinubu, Nigerian businessman Tony Elumelu and others, noting that photographs with other African Presidents earlier posted by her were done in the order she received them from her accompanying staff and colleagues at the event. She, therefore, stated that ascribing any ulterior motive or meaning to her action was unnecessary and unwarranted even as she called for unity of purpose and cessation of further attacks by Nigerians.
Okonjo-Iweala wrote: “Nigerians please relax! Re Paris, Interesting attacks from both sides. Sadly shows the depth of polarization in our society. I post photos in the order received by accompanying staff or colleagues. Reading more into it is unwarranted. Let’s unite to build our country not attack!”
