ABUJA — The Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP) has called for a full-scale investigation into the activities of the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council (PFIPC), urging the relevant authorities to investigate allegations surrounding the body and prosecute anyone found culpable.
Speaking in an interview in Abuja on Sunday, the Acting National Chairman of the coalition, Chief Peter Ameh, expressed concern over the inclusion of the council in the 2026 budget despite questions surrounding its legal status.
According to Ameh, the 2026 Budget Call Circular was issued to Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs), raising questions about the basis for the council’s inclusion in the budget.
He argued that the process through which the body was reflected in the budget required clarification, noting that it passed through several stages of government approval before being presented for presidential assent.
