The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has debunked claims of Mr. Paul Ibe, spokesperson to Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, former Vice President, alleging that its Executive Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, held a secret meeting with an unnamed politician.
Ibe, who was a guest on Seun Okinbaloye’s Politics Today on Channels Television on Thursday, May 22, 2025, bared his mind on sundry theories, conjectures and assumptions relating to opposition politics and defections.
The anti-graft agency maintained that Ibe’s allegations of the meeting of its Executive Chairman and Solicitor General of the Federation with an unnamed governor forty-eight hours before his defection to the ruling All People’s Congress, APC, “are patently fabricated and in bad taste”.
“Olukoyede has stressed it at several fora that he is apolitical and the EFCC totally wired against partisan tendencies”, EFCC’s spokesperson, Dele Oyewale stated on Friday, and enjoined the public to disregard the alleged meeting with the unnamed Governor “as it only exists in the imagination of Ibe”.
