 FEDERAL MINISTRY OF INFORMATION AND NATIONAL ORIENTATION  PRESS STATEMENT  BINANCE FALSE CLAIM ON BRIBERY DIVERSIONARY  The Federal Government of Nigeria is aware of attempts by Binance to launder its impaired image as an organisation that does not play by the rules and laws guiding business conduct in sovereign nations. In a blog post that has now been published by many international media organisations, in an apparent well-coordinated public relations effort, Binance Chief Executive Officer Richard Teng made false allegations of bribery against unidentified Nigerian government officials who he claimed demanded $150m in cryptocurrency payments to resolve the ongoing criminal investigation against the company.  This claim by Binance CEO lacks any iota of substance. It is nothing but a diversionary tactic and an attempted act of blackmail by a company desperate to obfuscate the grievous criminal charges it is facing in Nigeria.

 Impeachment Notice: Edo Assembly To Use Substituted Service On Shaibu


The impeachment saga of the Deputy Governor of Edo State, Philip Shaibu, continues as the state House of Assembly says it will resort to substituted service to serve the impeachment notice.


The Speaker of the Edo State House of Assembly, Blessing Agbebaku, announced this during plenary on Monday.


According to him, Shaibu has refused to acknowledge the impeachment notice sent to him from the court through DHL courier service.


Agbebaku said the impeachment notice to the deputy governor will now be served through a publication in the national dailies.


The Edo State House of Assembly, last week, commenced proceedings to impeach embattled Deputy Governor of the state, Philip Shaibu.


Announcing the commencement of the impeachment proceedings after sitting last Wednesday, the majority leader of the state house of assembly and member representing Ovia North East 1, Charity Aiguobarueghian, stated that the petition against the deputy governor which dated March 5, 2024 was endorsed by 21 out of the 24 lawmakers.


The majority leader maintained that the number of lawmakers that signed the petition have met the required two – thirds as stipulated in the constitution.


He noted that the petition was based on allegations of perjury and divulging Edo State government secrets.


The relationship between Shaibu and the Governor, Godwin Obaseki, has deteriorated in recent months.


In his recent Television interview, Shaibu attributed his fallout with Obaseki to his ambition to succeed him as the governor of Edo State.


He said Obaseki is not happy that he is not supporting his preferred candidate.


“He has not been happy that I’m not supporting his candidate. It is my right to contest in an election and I’m exercising that right. And he has done a lot of negative things. It doesn’t really matter, I see it as politics.


“I’ve made up my mind to always respect the office of the governor, and I’ll continue to respect the office of the governor till the end, whether as deputy or any other thing.


“So the relationship is not cordial, I can tell you that. It’s not from my own end, it’s from his own end because I have made attempts to bridge the gap, but he doesn’t allow it”, Shaibu said.
