Quick Glance: Corruption Scandal: Gbajabiamila's Alleged Scheme Exposed
- President Bola Tinubu's Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila, and the new cabal at Aso Rock Presidential Villa in Abuja, allegedly tried to embezzle $30 billion and 66 valuable properties.
- The Presidency cabal is fighting the takeover of four erring banks seized by the Central Bank of Nigeria, allegedly arranging for their cronies to buy the affected banks surreptitiously.
- The cabal allegedly concocted lies to convince President Tinubu to stop the Special Investigator's investigations and shielded suspects from interrogation.
- Gbajabiamila attempted to control the funds himself and gave instructions on how they should be distributed. Civil society groups urge President Tinubu not to undermine the credibility of the investigations and to warn Gbajabiamila to stay out of the Special Investigator's affairs.
