Legal expert argues no basis for Gbajabiamila's resignation over PFIPC allegations

Legal practitioner, Mr.Jiti Ogunye, has defended Chief of Staff Femi Gbajabiamila against calls for his resignation linked to alleged fake Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council (PFIPC) claims.

Ogunye emphasized that there is no legal or factual basis for demanding Gbajabiamila's resignation since he hasn't been indicted or charged with any offense.

He argued that resignation should only be considered if it obstructs investigations or compromises integrity, warning that premature calls for his exit could wrongly imply guilt despite the presumption of innocence.

Ogunye also debunked claims that Gbajabiamila benefited from a scheme involving forged documents, stating there's no evidence he knew or dealt with the alleged perpetrator, Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi Matthew.

The legal expert stressed that allegations must undergo proper investigation before any disciplinary action, rejecting public pressure to force officials into resigning over unproven accusations.
