Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo has denied claims that he received N4 billion from N39 billion allegedly embezzled by the suspended acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

A statement by his media aide, Laolu Akande particularly drew attention to publications by two online news portals which sought to portray an unseemly relationship between the vice-president and Mr. Magu.

Debunking the claim, Akande said:

“With all emphasis at our disposal, let it be firmly stated that these are totally false and baseless fabrications purporting to reflect goings-on at the Probe Panel investigating Mr. Ibrahim Magu. They are indeed completely absurd in every respect.

“Sadly, such mindless, vicious and reckless publications have now become the preferred tool of unscrupulous and reprobate elements in our society who are procured with monetary inducement to peddle blatant falsehood, tarnish the image of upright public officials and mislead unsuspecting Nigerians.

“Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, will of course not be distracted by these obvious campaigns of lies and calumny. The online publications, being criminally defamatory in nature, have been referred to the relevant law enforcement agencies for investigation and necessary action.”
