Nigeria’s Foreign Affairs Minister, Geoffrey Onyeama, has debunked reports that he declined an order by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to blackmail the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, in the United States.
It was rumoured that the recent suspension of Onyeama from the APC happened after he refused to carry out the task.
However, Onyeama’s spokesperson, Francisca Omayuli, in a recent statement described the allegations as mischievous and urged the public to disregard it.
Omayuli said: “The attention of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been drawn to a story circulating on social media that the Honourable Minister of Foreign Affairs, H.E. Geoffrey Onyeama, has been suspended by his party, the All Progressives Congress because as alleged, ‘he was sent to the United States to blackmail Peter Obi, and he declined the request’.
“The Honourable Minister of Foreign Affairs states that there is no iota of truth to the mischievous allegations.
“The general public is, therefore, called upon to disregard the story.”
