Since the latest update from veteran activist Martin K. N. Kollie’s Operation Octopus in the fight against the drug cartel, particularly the screenshot showing Yaw Langbo, alias Francis Nagbe, referring to IG Gregory Coleman as his “brother from another mother” in a February 16, 2024 birthday post, their camp appears to have become increasingly unsettled. Now, instead of producing credible evidence to refute that screenshot, we are being presented with what appears to be an AI-generated graduation-congratulations graphic supposedly posted by Yaw Langbo about Martin in 2023.
But let’s be clear: an AI-generated image is not a counterargument to documentary evidence. Again, I state: if Martin’s evidence is false, disprove it with hard facts. Produce the original post and provide the link, just as Martin did before Yaw Langbo deleted or hid almost all images from his page. Show the authentic source. Establish when, where, and how the alleged connection was created. It is not by manufacturing digital graphics and hoping they can balance the weight of evidence already placed before the public. Your court diversionary tactics did not work then even though you brought it back late yesterday; this elementary propaganda will not work now either. We understand the game, and you know we do, even if you pretend otherwise.
Fellow Liberians, look closely at the two images. We are not IT experts or forensic-image analysts, but even an ordinary observer can compare the facial details, hands, proportions, structure, textures, and overall composition of the two graphics. There are noticeable inconsistencies that raise legitimate questions about the authenticity of the second image. And what about that strategically placed emoji (
) in the lower-right corner? Some AI-generation tools, including Gemini, can leave identifiable markings or artifacts on generated/edited images. Whether that particular symbol is a Gemini watermark or not should be technically verified, but the attempt to obscure a potentially identifying mark certainly deserves scrutiny.
So, rather than distracting the public with cheap propaganda, produce the facts. If Martin is wrong, prove him wrong with the fact. If the screenshot is fabricated, establish that independently. If the relationship being alleged is false, provide the evidence that disproves it.
Facts do not need AI-generated cosmetics. Evidence does not need propaganda. And truth does not need a graphic designer.
We are watching!
