IKEJA, Lagos, Nigeria – A few platforms initially reported statements by Mr Tilewa Adebajo on the National Assembly’s approval of the securitisation of Ways and Means advances the Central Bank of Nigeria granted the Muhammadu Buhari administration.
Mr Adebajo spoke at the fourth Audit Reporting Workshop organised by FrontFoot Media Initiative to highlight the significance of state government audits as stipulated in the 1999 Nigerian constitution. Eighteen journalists attended.
Mr Adebajo has demanded a retraction of the story as he did not intend for his remarks to be reported.
We have asked the few platforms that reported the story to withdraw it. We understand Mr Adebajo’s position as he seeks to avoid misrepresenting or misreading his remarks and motives.
