In a recent development, the former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha, has vehemently denied any involvement in the alleged withdrawal of over $6 million from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). Mustapha’s denial comes in response to the publication of a report by Private Investigator Jim Obazee, who probed into the affairs of the CBN.
According to Mustapha, he has no knowledge of any directive related to the withdrawal and categorically stated, “I have no knowledge of such a directive. Nor was I ever involved in any discussions or transactions regarding the alleged payment to foreign election observers.”
The report suggests that $6.3 million was withdrawn from the CBN vaults based on a purported ‘Presidential Directive’ bearing the signature of President Buhari. However, Mustapha points out that the document in question has not been presented for public scrutiny, raising questions about its authenticity.
In response to what he considers a malicious attempt to damage his reputation, Mustapha insists on a thorough and transparent investigation into the matter. He calls for relevant authorities to probe the source of the alleged fabricated documents and expose those responsible for what he deems a malicious attempt to tarnish his integrity.
Asserting his commitment to transparency and ethical conduct throughout his public service career, Mustapha stated, “I have nothing to hide and welcome any legitimate investigation that sheds light on the truth. I will not allow this baseless and defamatory attack to go unchallenged. I will defend my reputation vigorously and ensure that the truth prevails.”
Mustapha emphasizes that this is not just about him but about upholding the integrity of public service and safeguarding the reputation of those who have served the country with honor. He expresses trust that the Nigerian people will see through what he perceives as an orchestrated attack, recognizing it as a desperate attempt to silence a voice of reason and integrity.
