The House of Representatives Ad-hoc Committee investigating the activities of the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council (PFIPC) has directed the Inspector-General of Police, Olatunji Disu, to produce the alleged director-general of the disputed agency to appear before it.
It urged the IGP to produce Adeniyi Adeyemi before the committee on July 29, 2026, at noon, as its investigation into the PFIPC continues.
The lawmakers’ call came on Monday just as the Accountant General of the Federation, Shamseldeen Ogunjimi, said that his office declined a request by the PFIPC to open a Treasury Single Account (TSA), insisting that due diligence had not been completed.
Ogunjimi, who spoke when he appeared before the House of Representatives ad hoc committee, explained that though the ‘council’ requested the opening of a TSA account, his office declined the request pending compliance with established due diligence requirements.

The PFIPC controversy began after the self-acclaimed director-general of the disputed agency, Adeniyi Adeyemi, alleged during a presser that the Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, demanded 48 per cent from its ₦27.3 billion takeoff grant.
Adeyemi had also alleged that the Chief of Staff received ₦400 million through a proxy and requested an additional ₦200 million to facilitate presidential approvals.
But Gbajabiamila denied the allegations in a statement on oath, maintaining that he had no personal, official or professional relationship with Adeyemi.
He also denied demanding or receiving any money, abusing his office or interfering with law enforcement agencies.
The Chief of Staff further denied any involvement in the alleged death of Babatunde Tanimola, whom Adeyemi claimed acted as an intermediary, as well as allegations linking him to an alleged assassination attempt on the defendant or interference with investigations by security agencies.
