President Bola Tinubu on Thursday received the interim report of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission’s investigation into the fictitious Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council, with the anti-graft agency recommending the immediate prosecution of Mr Adeniyi Adeyemi Matthew.
Briefing State House correspondents after presenting the report to the President at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa, ICPC Chairman Musa Adamu, SAN, said the investigation had conclusively established that Adeyemi was never appointed by the Federal Government.
He added that the PFIPC, also referred to in some documents as the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council, was never created by any law, Executive Order or valid government instrument.
Adamu said, “The appointment letter presented by the suspect, along with other supporting documents, was completely forged and did not originate from the Presidency.”
