Infidelity accusations against my wife is unfounded and childish — Jack-Rich

The President of BelemaOil Producing Limited and former presidential aspirant under the All Progressives Congress, Tein Jack-Rich, has expressed shock over a recent publication, credited to Jackson Ude, a former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan.

Jack-Rich in a statement made available to our correspondent on Wednesday, described the report as “provocative, malicious, preposterous, unwarranted, distasteful, and unsubstantiated publication by politically sponsored agents.”

It was gathered that Ude, on his Twitter handle, accused Jack-Rich of allowing his wife, “ Elizabeth, to have a sexual relationship with Seyi Tinubu, the son of President Bola Tinubu.”

Ude also alleged that Jack-Rich bribed the Chief of Staff to Tinubu, Femi Gbajabiamila, with N500 million so he could be made a minister.

The statement by Jack-Rich read, “Dear fellow Nigerians, the attention of the family of Tein T.S. Jack-Rich CON, has been drawn to the recent provocative, malicious, preposterous, unwarranted, distasteful, and unsubstantiated publication by politically sponsored agents within the past two days, making several spurious allegations against the person and family of Jack-Rich, all with the intention of maligning his name and reputation.

“It is also sad that this is with the aim of gaining cheap political relevance within the emerging political space. On behalf of the family, we wish to state unequivocally clear and with all sense of responsibility that the entirety of the allegations are not only unfounded and childish, but also depict the nature and character of the persons and evil elements behind them; who are also well known by their political brigandage and desperation for political relevance.”

The statement further refuted allegations that Jack-Rich bribed or was planning to bribe anyone for a ministerial appointment, describing it as “just another figment of the convoluted imagination of persons who see him as a major obstacle to their desperate dreams, aspirations, and political desperation for survival because they have lost their own political roots.”
