  • New controversy surrounds Prince Matthew Adeniyi Adeyemi, the man accused of operating a fake federal agency, as reports emerge that he was previously fired from a role as an aide to Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke for alleged corrupt practices.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

    • Adeyemi, who claims to be the Director-General of the unrecognized Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council (PFIPC), is currently under investigation by the Presidency for operating a fictitious entity and falsely claiming an association with Femi Gbajabiamila, the President’s Chief of Staff.

    • The Presidency has officially disavowed Adeyemi and emphasized the urgent need for security agencies to dismantle the internal network that facilitated his activities.

    • Sources indicate that Adeyemi served as a Senior Special Assistant on Protocol for Governor Adeleke in 2023, where he was tasked with managing visa and travel documentation.

    • His tenure reportedly ended after four months when the French Embassy contacted the Osun State Government regarding a letter the administration had no record of sending.

    • An internal investigation allegedly revealed that Adeyemi had forged Governor Adeleke’s signature on official correspondence to the embassy to pursue personal fraudulent interests.

    • Following the discovery, the Governor reportedly ordered the Secretary to the State Government to dismiss Adeyemi immediately, though he opted not to pursue legal prosecution at the time to maintain focus on his administration.

    • While the Presidency maintains that the PFIPC does not exist, Adeyemi continues to assert that his appointment is legitimate and has leveled counter-accusations of corruption against the Chief of Staff, claims which the Presidency has rejected.
