‘Vested interests’
He tweeted, “Dear well-wishers, a morphed (deep fake) video of mine has been making the rounds on social media. I would like to inform you that it is not me in the video, it’s created to malign my impeccable image by my adversaries with a vested interest.”
I have also filed a complaint with the cyber crime police. I have faith, the culprits will be nabbed soon. 2/3
