The Director-General of the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council, PFIPC, Adeniyi Adeyemi, has said he is ready to defend himself in court over the presidential council controversy.
Adeyemi made this declaration on Thursday while responding to questions in an interview on ‘Politics Today’, a programme on Channels Television.
Recall that Adeyemi alleged that Femi Gbajabiamila, Chief of Staff to President Bola Tinubu, received N400 million through a proxy and demanded an additional N200 million to secure his appointment.
The presidency on Wednesday refuted the allegation, saying that Gbajabiamila cannot write letters or give appointments.
However, speaking during the interview, Adeyemi said, “If I’m wrong, let the court of law do the right thing, and if I’m right, let the court of law do the right thing.
“Since the matter is in the court, let the competent court of jurisdiction vindicate me because I’m ready to clear my name.”
