DSS never raided our offices for documents on Tinubu – CCB

 The Code of Code Bureau (CCB) says it was not true that
operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) raided its offices.

 

On Friday, an online report alleged that officers of the DSS
“removed” all incriminating files relating to Tinubu and close aides from ICPC
and the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB).

 

However, in a statement on Sunday, Daniel Okafor, CCB
director of education and advocacy services, described the publication as “misleading”.

 

“While the CCB would have preferred to ignore the write-up
given the unprofessional manner the story was put together, doing so will give
the tale some value and help the writers achieve their aim of misinforming and
misleading the general public about an event that happened only in their
minds,” Okafor said.

 

 “The CCB wishes to
state unequivocally that at no time did the DSS or any apparatus of the federal
government of Nigeria carry out any raid or search for incriminating documents
on the president and his associates at its head office in Abuja or any of the
offices in the states and the FCT.

 

“It is also necessary to state clearly that at no time since
this government assumed office on 29th May 2023 was any directive received from
the federal government of Nigeria to cover up any matter regarding the
president and his associates as conveyed by the publication.

 

“The general public is therefore urged to disregard the
publication as fake news because it has no iota of truth and evidence.

 

 “The CCB, however,
reassures the Nigerian people that as a foremost anti-corruption agency, it
will continue to discharge its functions as contained under paragraph 3 of part
1 of the third schedule of the 1999 constitution of the federal republic of
Nigeria, as amended.”
