His attorney requests intensive test

In the mean time, in an eleven-point articulation delivered yesterday, through his legal counselor, Maryam Musa, the artiste asked the commission to complete its examination completely to guarantee that characters endeavoring to bring him into such ludicrous exercises will be brought to book.

The assertion peruses to some extent: "The media is flooded with reports of Oladapo Oyebanjo, Dbanj, in ICPC authority, as to unestablished charges of extortion for which it has become critical to offer the accompanying expression, with the end goal of lucidity and to sort freely available reports out.

"It is educational to state first that the report concerning the capture and detainment of Oyebanjo is confounded, malignant and biased to the equity framework anyplace on the planet, and we would exhort that the overall population be very much directed.

"We recognize the way that the ICPC is right now examining charges of redirection of N-Power assets, as currently expressed by the commission and we keep on holding the assumption that the commission will stick with it of amazing skill in this.

"In case it wasn't already obvious, D'banj has no such legally binding or coincidental relationship at all with any gathering or people inside or outside government, corresponding to the dispensing, activities, access or control of the activity of any administration store through an organization or its auxiliaries.

Respecting ICPC greeting

"D'banj got back to the Commission the next day being Tuesday the sixth of December, 2022 as prior concurred and willfully submitted himself to the Commission to make their request and examination.

 "D'banj has ordered the Commission to do its examination completely to guarantee that characters endeavoring to bring him into such absurd exercises should be brought to book.

"It is unfathomable that D'banj whose very profession is a reference point for difficult work, tirelessness and genuineness would loan his standing fabricated immovably over the course of the years to demonstrations of such allegations which he should now unemotionally endure while demonstrating his innocence."

 D'banj's legal counselor, be that as it may, encouraged the overall population to fight the temptation to get involved with the media preliminary, which she depicted as " obvious yet in any case unsafe to the course for reality which D'banj has eagerly set himself on by respecting the ICPC's summons."

"We hold the expectation that the exhaustiveness of the ICPC will in a matter of moments excuse D'banj of all and each claim evened out against his individual and it is thus that we entreat the overall population to remain prepared for pernicious troublemakers who might be endeavoring to soil his picture for their own motivations," said the explanation.
