Ayere Concern Youth has challenged a report alleging that Senator Sunday Steve Karimi was booed by youths during the 2026 Ayere Day celebration in Kogi State, describing the publication as a misleading account of the event.

The disputed report, published by Latest New Gists, carried the headline: “AYERE DAY: IJUMU YOUTH BOO KOGI WEST SENATOR KARIMI OVER POOR PERFORMANCE, INSISTS HE IS THE WORST SENATOR OF KOGI WEST.”

The publication alleged that youths expressed displeasure with the senator’s performance and that the situation subsequently resulted in a confrontation.

However, Ayere Concern Youth, in a statement responding to the report, presented a different account of the lawmaker’s reception at the cultural gathering.
