Goje’s Family Denies Money Spraying Allegations at Daughter’s Recent Wedding
Segun Awofadeji in Gombe
The family of Senator Danjuma Goje, a former Governor of Gombe State, has denied allegations of money spraying at his daughter, Fauziyya’s wedding ceremony.
A viral video circulating on social media suggested that money was sprayed during the event, but the family claimed it was a malicious attempt to tarnish their image.
Media Aide to the senator representing Gombe central, Muhammad Adamu Yayari, in a press release, said the wedding, held on October 25, 2024, at the Central Mosque in Abuja was attended by prominent dignitaries, including President Bola Tinubu, Senate President Godswill Akpabio and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
He added that President Tinubu served as the bride’s guardian, while Senator Ibrahim Dankwambo represented the groom.
The family stated that the bride and groom in the viral video were not Fauziyya and her husband, and there were no familiar faces to the family, indicating the video was unrelated to them.
“The video is the handiwork of mischief makers seeking to sabotage the successful ceremony and bring denigration to the family and its esteemed guests.
“The family urged the public to disregard the baseless claim and appreciate the values of decency and respect that define them,” he said.
