-
Wike challenged Adeyemi to present evidence instead of making public allegations.
- SDP chairman called for independent investigation and Gbajabiamila to step aside.
The controversy surrounding the alleged Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council (PFIPC) has intensified after Pa Adetunji Adeniyi, father of self styled Director General Adeniyi Adeyemi, alleged that security operatives raided his home three times within two days while searching for his son.
Speaking to BBC Yoruba, the elderly Adeniyi said armed operatives stormed his residence in Ogbomoso, Osun State, damaging parts of his property, confiscating family mobile phones and later arresting him after questioning him about his son’s whereabouts.

EKO HOT BLOG reports that according to him, the first group of operatives entered the compound by scaling the fence and damaging the security wire before identifying themselves as government officials.
“They jumped the fence into my compound and destroyed the security wire at the entrance before entering. They searched the entire house, including all the cupboards,” he said.
He explained that the officers returned later the same day to seize the family’s phones before coming back again the following night.
Adeniyi said he could not provide information about his son’s residence in Abuja because he did not know his exact address. He maintained that he was unaware of any wrongdoing committed by his son and described him as someone who had never been associated with trouble.
The father said he was later taken into custody after security operatives repeatedly questioned him about Adeyemi’s location.
The development follows President Bola Tinubu’s directive to the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) to investigate the activities of the PFIPC, which the Presidency has described as a fictitious organisation with no legal backing.
