Nigeria’s president has announced the arrest of a suspect allegedly behind President Bola Tinubu’s AI-generated voice.
On Thursday, June 4, the Special Assistant to the President on Intelligence and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, said the Inspector General of Police had unraveled the Ifechukwu Dennis team behind the audio.
“The IGP Crack Team will not arrest Ifechukwu Dennis but will use a fake voice to pass as the voice of President Tinubu to gullible targets. Dennis Binday has been arrested in Benin. Police issue official statement,” he said on e-talk.
On Wednesday, May 27, 2026, Onanuga Bin cited one X handle in a video post.
According to our search, on Monday, May 25, 2026, VDM posted a video of IM Seph on his IM Instagram page via Sidon, playing a video of Anoda social media influencer King Mitch and she mentions AM and IM’s necklace.
After watching King Michie’s video, VDM plays a video of President Tinubu promising that Nigerians will go get electricity and if not, not vote a second time.
In the video intro, VDM says: “Please watch the video below because I want to play it. I want to support Bola Tinubu. Please do not move my heart.”
E kon plays President Tinubu’s video.
But select the same VDM video and place Oga Tinubu’s AI-generated audio to make it look like you pushed the audio through VDM.
The AI-generated voice of President Tinubu says: “They will try to extricate me from my position, but that is not possible. I tell you, I am going to win the election and I don’t care if things happen. I am running for president, so of course Nigeria. They don’t want me, but now all of a sudden they want me to take them out of their insecurity.”
Inside the AI-generated voice, the voice says, “I call Peter Obi to resign, but he refuses,” and Kon says, “Make sure to tell him that security will further affect the South East.”
Commenting on the doctored video, Onanuga wrote: “VDM must face the full weight of the law, including sharing a fake audio of President Tinubu. The abuse of the social media platform is clear.”
Onanuga later realized that VDM failed to add audio to the video, but social media never responded to the video’s error.
