Biggest cover-up – Sowore speaks on arrest of fake PFIPC DG, Adeniyi Adeyemi

Human rights activist and former presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has described the arrest of the self-acclaimed Director-General of the non-existent Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council (PFIPC), Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi, as “the biggest cover-up ever.”

Sowore made the remark in a post on his X handle on Tuesday while reacting to Adeyemi’s arrest following a warrant issued by the Federal High Court in Abuja.

According to him, the arrest and alleged dehumanisation of Adeyemi suggest what he described as “an official cover-up rather than a genuine search for truth.”

He further alleged that if the authorities were genuinely interested in uncovering the truth, President Bola Tinubu’s Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila, should also be investigated.

Sowore also claimed that the individual allegedly linked to the collection of a ₦400 million bribe on behalf of the Chief of Staff had died under mysterious circumstances, while the hotel allegedly used for the transaction had been demolished.

He further accused the federal government of obstructing justice in its handling of the matter.
