Yemi Osinbajo Did Not Receive N4BN From Magu – Laolu Akande

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Office of the Vice President, Laolu Akande has come out to say that reports saying that Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo had collected N4 billion from the embattled acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu is fake news.

Laolu Akande recently revealed that Osinbajo has never been involved in any of such activities, so the rumors should be ignored.

According to him, the perpetrators of these lies are only trying to confuse and concocted to smear Prof. Osinbajo’s image, so they should not be taken seriously.

He added that Osinbajo has and will always be a just and upright politician.

His words, “Inundated by wide circulation of Fake News about VP’s purported involvement in some EFCC recovery billions, please be rest assured they’re all LIES calculated to confuse and concocted to smear Prof. Osinbajo’s image.”

“The VP hasn’t and will never be involved in any such shady activities.”
