Some world leaders, including Nicolas Sarkozy, have genuine Facebook profiles boasting thousands of supporters, but Bharrat Jagdeo, the leader of Guyana since 1999, is not one of them.
A fake profile of the president attracted almost 200 supporters before Jagdeo lodged a complaint and called in the police. He issued a terse statement pointing out that he is not, and never has been, a member of Facebook, or any other social networking site.
It said: “The office of the president is concerned that someone has impersonated President Bharrat Jagdeo on the community-based website Facebook.”
It added: “The public is being asked to ignore this impersonation.”
On Wednesday Jagdeo asked the Guyana police to track down the impersonator.
