The Presidency has denied ownership of a yacht spotted flying the Nigerian
flag in St. Tropez, a coastal town in France.

In a viral video on social media, the yacht can be seen displaying the Nigerian
flag as it sailed through the French town, triggering conspiracy theories online
with some people linking the yacht’s ownership to President Bola Tinubu.

However, the Presidency in a response, issued by the Senior Special Assistant
to the President on Digital and New Media, Otega Ogra, said neither Tinubu nor
the Nigerian government has any association with the yacht, clarifying that it
belongs to a private individual.

In a post on his X, Ogra explained that flags used by the President or the
Nigerian Armed Forces don’t feature a coat of arms as seen on the one bore by
the yacht in question.
