Newsonline Nigeria understands that several news sources reported over the weekend that the anti-graft commission invited the former vice presidential candidate to face questioning over his secret business dealings and offshore accounts exposed in the Pandora papers leak.
The former governor, in a press release by his media Office, Valentine Obienyem, said a reaction which quoted him as requesting the EFCC to make their investigations public, among other remarks did not emanate from him.
He said: “Obi is yet to receive the letter from the EFCC, which he read on social media like others.
