President Bola Tinubu met with Dr Musa Aliyu, chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission, at Aso Rock Villa in Abuja on Thursday. This occurred a day after Tinubu directed a thorough forensic investigation into the fake Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council scandal. This came two weeks after Aliyu presented the ICPC's interim report on the PFIPC investigation to Tinubu at the Villa on August 6, 2026.
In the report, Aliyu accused Femi Gbajabiamila, President Tinubu's Chief of Staff, of accepting a N400 million bribe to help Adeniyi Adeyemi secure his appointment. The ICPC reported that Adeyemi was never officially appointed, the PFIPC was never legally established, and the forged appointment letter was not from the Presidency.
The commission also revealed that Adeyemi created two more fake agencies and unlawfully took over the defunct Presidential Economic Advisory Council. The ICPC recommended prosecuting Adeyemi, imposing administrative sanctions on public officials involved, and reforms to improve internal controls.
