A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Ayekooto Akindele has called for an in-depth investigation into the controversy surrounding the formation of the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council, PFIPC.

DAILY POST reports that following an allegation of bribe leveled against President Bola Tinubu’s chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila by the self-acclaimed Director General of PFIPC, Adeniyi Adeyemi Matthew, the presidency had disowned the agency and the accuser.

However, Adeyemi in an interview with Channels TV on Thursday night, insisted that his appointment was legit, alleging that the Chief of Staff was privy to all his operations.

Reacting, Ayekooto in a statement on his official X handle on Friday, expressed certainty that Adeniyi must have collaborators in and outside the government.

“One thing is clear Prince Adeniyi has collaborators within and outside the government”, he wrote.

He called on authorities to investigate top offices, including the office of the Director General of Budget for allegedly allocating money to the fake agency, the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN for creating account for for the PFIPC and the Inspector General of Police, IGP for providing police protection for Adeyemi.

He wrote, “Now, we know one MIMI ABU who is a Director in Head of Service of the Federation office signed an approval letter on behalf of head of service to employ staff for a non existent government agency.

“By now, the DG Budget who prepared the 2026 National budget should tell us why he allocated money to a non existent presidential council, CBN Governor, Accountant General of the Federation should tell us the documents they relied on to open accounts for Mr Mathew Adeniyi.

“How come Nigeria Police gave Mr Matthew Adeyemi orderly and police protection throughout his scam activities.

“Civil Servants in SGF and Head of Service offices who gave him office keys in the Federal Secretariat must tell us on whose instruction they acted”.

ROTN Simi Simji Goshwe has officially assumed office as the new President of the Rotary Club of Naraguta, pledging to sustain the club’s legacy of humanitarian service through impactful community development projects.

“Rotary is very structured and well organised. What I’m going to do is remain consistent in carrying on the projects we need to do,” she said.

She disclosed that her first major project would be the distribution of complete school uniforms, sandals, school bags and learning materials to 50 indigent pupils in public primary schools.

According to her, the initiative is aimed at restoring the children’s confidence and encouraging them to remain in school.

“We want these children who trek barefoot to school and wear tattered uniforms to be clothed and given a sense of confidence and dignity as they prepare for school resumption,” she said.

The Rotary president also appealed to members not to be discouraged by the country’s economic challenges, urging them to continue supporting the club through their time, talents and resources while seeking partnerships with individuals and organisations committed to humanitarian service.
