Former Minister of Aviation, Kani- OluKayode responded to a report that he received $1.7bn from Sambo Dasuki who is standing trial on the going arms deal scandal... Sahara Reporters hints that the investigation was prompted by petition sent to EFCC by some staff of the former Campaign Organization alleging he, Kayode received $1.7bn. Kani Kayode responded..."
I read with amusement the allegation that was made in saharareporters, the unofficial media wing of the Buhari administration, the SSS and the EFCC,, that I was given 1.7 billion naira cash by President Goodluck Jonathan. This is false. A few hours later they changed their story and said that I received 1.7 billion naira from the office of the former NSA, Colonel Sambo Dasuki. This is also false. I have never received one kobo from President Jonathan himself, Colonel Dasuki or any other member of President Jonathan's government.I have not ever been in receipt of any public funds and neither was I the beneficiary of any payments in cash, transfer, cheque or otherwise from any government official during the tenure of President Jonathan.
As Director of Media and Publicity of the Jonathan/Sambo Campaign organisation, I received money on behalf of the Directorate of Media and Publicity which I headed from private individuals and companies during the election campaigns but these were not public funds but rather private contributions specifically for the Presidential and other campaigns."
Kani- kayode was the Director of Media and Publicity during Jonathan/ Sambo join ticket for 2015 Presidential campaign. which president Muhammadu Buhari won. the
the online news platform added ..."The online news platform said it also learned that, shortly after his reported receipt of the large sum of funds, Mr. Fani-Kayode purchased several SUVs, including one for Precious Chikwendu, his girlfriend at the time.( today.ng)
