In a statement released by NSO says the map in question is fake and advised the public to disregard it.
“The National Statistical Office (NSO) has noted with concern, the circulation of a fake political map depicting the popularity of different political parties being shared in different social media for citing NSO as the source.
The general public and all stakeholders are being informed that it is NOT in the mandate of NSO to produce such maps,” reads the statement.
The statement has since appealed to the general public to disregard contents of the fake political map and is requesting all to desist from such criminal acts of sharing false and misleading information in the name of the NSO.
