Atiku Abubakar, ADC presidential candidate, accuses the Tinubu administration of opening the doors of the Nigerian state to Adeniyi Adeyemi, the self-acclaimed Director-General of the PFIPC. He describes Adeyemi's arrest as a tactic to shift blame. Atiku expresses shock at how the entity obtained diplomatic recognition, recruited over 300 personnel, and secured office space at the Federal Secretariat. He also questions the allocation of N6.44 billion for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, noting Nigeria was already eliminated by November 2025.
