President Tinubu meets with ICPC chairman at Aso Rock

The meeting's agenda was not disclosed. This visit follows President Tinubu's directive for a forensic investigation into the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council PFIPC scandal during a Federal Executive Council meeting. The ICPC had previously revealed other fake agencies operating within government institutions.

Two weeks prior, on August 6, 2026, Dr. Aliyu submitted an interim report on the PFIPC investigation to President Tinubu. The President had mandated the ICPC to investigate the agency and its promoter, Adeniyi Matthew Adeyemi, on July 7. Adeyemi had accused the Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, of accepting a N400 million bribe.

The ICPC's interim report stated that Adeyemi was never appointed by the Federal Government, the PFIPC was not legally established, and Adeyemi's appointment letter was forged. The commission also found that Adeyemi created two other fictitious agencies, the FCT Investment Promotion Agency and the Foreign Investment Promotion Agency and Public-Private Partnership, using forged documents to open bank accounts and unlawfully occupying the office of the defunct Presidential Economic Advisory Council. The ICPC recommended Adeyemi's prosecution, administrative sanctions for public officers involved, and institutional reforms.
