The president of Guyana has contacted police and has asked them to investigate
who is impersonating him on Facebook. Associated Press has reported that a government statement said that Bharrat Jagdeo was indeed
not a Facebook member, claiming he has been a victim in a crime that can only be described as ‘Facebooked’.
The fake Jagdeo
page has over 170 supporters, and features images of the president as well as his biography. Maybe Guyana is a quiet place this time
of year, even so maybe the president should be concentrating on other stuff like running the country?!
Obviously not it seems
as further research done by the Guyana government shows that officials also discovered that someone had impersonated the president of
the South American nation on another social networking site.
Personally I think it’s just an excuse to visit such websites
during work hours. The real question the officals of Guyana should be asking themselves is… Why does the man running their country
only have 170 supporters on his Facebook page?!
