A former Coordinator of the Peter Obi 2023 presidential campaign and Imo State governorship aspirant, Hon. Chief Ifeanyi Thaddeus Ezeagu, has called for a transparent, independent and comprehensive investigation into the alleged fake federal agency scandal that has sparked national concern.
Ezeagu, in a statement issued on Thursday, said the controversy surrounding the purported Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council has exposed the serious gaps in Nigeria’s public administration and accountability system, insisting that Nigerians deserve to know how a non-existent agency allegedly secured official recognition, office space and a budgetary allocation before it was uncovered.
The Sokoto-based businessman who was a gubernatorial aspirant in Imo State during the recent party primaries welcomed President Bola Tinubu’s directive to the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) to investigate the matter within 30 days but stressed that the probe must be transparent, impartial and free from political interference.
