The House of Representatives Committee probing the contentious Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council, PFIPC, on Monday, ordered the Inspector-General of Police, Olatunji Disu, to produce the alleged mastermind of the fake scheme, Mr Adeyemi Martin, before it on Wednesday by 12 noon.
The committee gave the order after the Nigeria Police Force confirmed key aspects of its ongoing criminal investigation, including petitions from the Office of the Chief of Staff to the President.
The petitions alleged that Adeyemi fraudulently presented himself as the director-general of the purported Presidential Economic Advisory Council and the Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council.
Chairman of the committee, Rep Yusuf Gagdi, held that Adeyemi’s appearance had become necessary because of the gravity of the allegations and their implications for individuals and government institutions.
“This committee clearly needs the suspected DG to appear before this committee. People’s names are involved. People’s integrity are involved. Institutional names are involved.
