Chief Dele Momodu, an ally of Billionaire Mike Adenuga, has said the rumoured death of the Chairman of Globacom and Conoil is ‘fake news.’
Momodu said as of Tuesday evening, November 19, 2024, Adenuga was at his desk working.
The media entrepreneur disclosed that Adenuga “just called me to thank everyone for their concern.”

Momodu’s clarification comes amid online speculations that Adenuga passed away aged 71.
Debunking the viral rumour on his verified X (formerly known as Twitter) account, Momodu said the Oyo-born oil tycoon “is right now at his desk working round the clock.”
With an accompanying picture of Adenuga, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain wrote: “Ignore the fake news. The Spirit of Africa DR MICHAEL ADENIYI AGBOLADE ISOLA ADENUGA is hale and hearty. He’s right now at his desk working round the clock in support of the Nigerian economy. He just called me to thank everyone for their concern.”
