Chief of Staff to the President, Mr Olufemi Gbajabiamila, has given Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi 72 hours to withdraw his false and defamatory allegations against him. He recently had his say through his solicitors, Pinheiro LP, and Nigerians have been reacting.
Demanding a public apology in a widely circulated press conference, Gbajabiamila warned Prince Adeyemi to remove the alleged defamatory publications from all media platforms and pen a written undertaking that no further allegations would be made against him.
Warning that failure to do so will result in both civil and criminal legal action, Femi added that the lies are a calculated attempt to portray him as corrupt and unfit to hold public office.
A press statement read, “The publication goes far beyond fair comment, criticism or political discourse. Rather, it consists of grave allegations of criminality, corruption, abuse of office, bribery, extortion, obstruction of justice and official misconduct made without any lawful justification or supporting evidence.”
