The Code of Code Bureau, CCB has denied reports that the Department of State Service, DSS raided its offices to cart away incriminating documents on President Bola Tinubu.
The agency, in a statement by its Director of Education and Advocacy Services, Daniel Okafor said the claim was false.
The CCB stated unequivocally that at no time did the DSS or any apparatus of the Federal Government of Nigeria carry out any raid or search for incriminating documents on the President and his associates at its Head Office in Abuja or any of the offices in the States and the FCT.
It also stated that at no time since this government assumed office on May 29 was any directive received from the Federal Government to cover up any matter regarding the President and his associates as insinuated by recent reports.
It, therefore, advised the general public to disregard such reports as fake news because it has no iota of truth and evidence.
The CCB further reassured Nigerians that as a foremost anti-corruption agency, it will continue to discharge its functions as contained under paragraph 3 of Part 1 of the Third Schedule of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, as amended.
