BREAKING: Presidency Reacts With Fresh Revelations To Video Of Yacht Spotted With Nigerian Flag

The presidency has denied ownership of a yacht seen with the Nigerian flag in St-Tropez, France.

Social media reports claiming a “presidential yacht” belonging to Nigeria was vacationing in St-Tropez have gone viral.

In response, Otega Ogra, Senior Special Assistant to President Bola Tinubu on Digital and New Media, clarified on X that the yacht belongs to a private individual.

He also noted that the flags used by the president or armed forces do not feature the coat of arms, as seen on the yacht.

“There have been false claims circulating that a private individual’s yacht was spotted in St. Tropez is a Nigerian government yacht.

Here are some points to consider in order to discern the truth,” Ogra said on Saturday.

“The 42m Bennetti yacht currently being shared online has been privately owned for around 5 years since it was constructed.

“It is important to note that this specific yacht has no connection or ownership ties to the Nigerian government, president or armed forces. Any claims or assertions suggesting otherwise are simply not true and inaccurate.

“It is not uncommon for luxury yachts to fly the flag of the owner’s country as well as the flag of the country in which they are registered.

“The official Nigerian flag is Green-White-Green without a coat of arms in the middle. Flags representing the Nigerian President or the Armed Forces do not contain a coat of arms in the center. Placing anything in the center of the flag is a clear deviation.”
