Former President Goodluck
Jonathan says the portable document format (PDF) of his recently launched book,
‘My Transition Hours’, is fake.
Jonathan celebrated his 61st
birthday on Tuesday with the launch of his book.
The former president raised an
alarm on Thursday, saying a fake copy is circulating online.
Jonathan said there is no
provision for marketing a soft copy of the book.
He explained that while the
original book has 194 pages, the e-version has 100 more pages.
The former president said the
contents of the book he launched also differ from the counterfeit in
circulation.
A statement released by Ikechukwu
Eze, his spokesman, read: “We have just been informed that a fake document
contrived by mischief makers is being passed on as the e-version and hard copy
of the just launched ‘#MyTransitionHours’.
“We advise the general public to
ignore such publication as the chapters and contents are not the same as the
book publicly presented two days ago in Abuja. #MyTransitionHours.
“Also, note that the e-copy of
#MyTransitionHours ’is not being marketed, as such, the fake online version
could only have been created by those out to deceive the unsuspecting public.”
Meanwhile, Jonathan has tweeted
that the e-copy of his book is the “work of mischievous persons”.
He wrote: “The alleged copy of my
book, My Transition Hours, now circulating online is fake. It is the work of
mischievous persons who have a wicked agenda. If you buy a copy of my book, you
will note that it has only 194 pages, whereas this strange book has 254 pages.
I am shocked at the extent people go to cause calumny.”
