The Head of Service of the Federation, Didi Esther Walson-Jack, on Wednesday clarified that she did not allocate or authorise the deployment of staff to the Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council, PFIPC, headed by purported Director General, Adeyemi Adeniyi.
She made this known while appearing before the House of Representatives hearing on the PFIPC scandal. Walson-Jack also clarified that her office did not issue an organisational structure to the PFIPC under Adeyemi.
The Head of Service said, “I was here earlier and all that we said we still stand by what we said, but I do believe that a few more details will clarify these issues.
“We are happy to state that all that we said regarding the issue of deployment, I summarised that there was no deployment; the issues as regards office accommodation, we did not give office accommodation; the issues as regards organisational structure, we did not issue any organisational structure.
“The issue that I believe we need to clarify is the issue of unauthorised establishment and the issuance of a recruitment waiver. If you kindly indulge me, I would like to take that portion that we have not earlier stated, and I will also provide a more detailed explanation.”
