PFIPC scandal: HoS admits mistakes as Reps uncover irregular approvals

Fresh details emerged on Wednesday in the House of Representatives’ investigation into the controversial Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council, as the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation.

The House Ad Hos Committee probing the alleged creation of the PFIPC and the Presidential Economic Advisory Council without legal backing also said it had uncovered what it described as a web of fake appointment letters, fabricated legislative documents and fictitious government offices allegedly used by the promoters to obtain official recognition from federal institutions.

The House committee is investigating how several federal institutions processed and acted on the documents, leading to the purported agency receiving official approvals.
