He added that he spoke with the publisher of one of the blogs that started the rumour on Sunday and the person dropped the phone as soon as he realised who he was talking to.
“We have been getting calls from all over the world from people who want to confirm if the story is true. My mum is on the phone right now answering multiple calls. This is annoying,” Soji further told the QEDNG publisher.
At the time of filing this report, the family was planning to go out with the 82-year-old to show that he is still alive.
