Mr Gbajabiamila requests the SSS to investigate and prosecute perpetrators of falsehoods against him.



The Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, has written a letter of complaint to the State Security Securitt (SSS) over what he called “false allegations and sustained campaign of calumny” against him.

The letter, addressed to the Director General of the SSS, Yusuf Magaji Bichi, which was sighted by our PREMIUM TIMES, indicated that other security agencies may have been directed to launch investigations as well.

Mr Gbajabiamila served in the House of Representatives for over 20 years, during which he was minority whip, minority leader (for eight years) and majority leader before becoming Speaker in 2019. He was appointed chief of staff to President Bola Tinubu days after the president was sworn into office on May 29, 2023.

In his letter to the SSS, the chief of staff lamented a sustained regime of smear campaigns against him. He therefore requested the security agency to investigate and fish out those spreading falsehood about him.

The letter was titled “Request for Investigation of False Allegations and Sustained Campaign of Calumny Against my Person by Unknown Elements.”

In the letter dated 9 January, 2023, Mr Gbajabiamila said: “Over the past six months, unknown individuals or groups have made a sustained effort using social media to spread unfounded allegations of corruption, malfeasance, and abuse of office against my person. This campaign of calumny has gotten progressively more aggressive in tone and content over the last month, thus necessitating this letter.

“I have served in the government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria for the past two decades, first in the legislature, where I rose to the position of the Speaker of the House of Representatives and now in the executive as Chief of Staff to the President. In that time, my efforts to ensure probity in the management of public resources are well documented. As Speaker of the House of Representatives, I presided over the national budget for all ministries, departments and agencies for four years without blemish.

“While it is my inclination to ignore these attacks as part of the usual mischief of politics, my position as Chief of Staff to the President compels me to act because falsehoods left unchallenged soon take on the toga of truth. Furthermore, the aggressive escalation of these attacks suggests that the perpetrators of these attacks will continue until they are held to account. For these reasons, the stoic silence I have maintained on this matter thus far will no longer suffice.

“I am satisfied that I have not acted in any way to warrant or justify these attacks. Therefore, I am requesting your office to investigate the sources and substance of these false allegations. Rather than hide behind the anonymity of the internet, let my accusers be unmasked to substantiate their claims or face the consequences of their libel against me.”

The chief of staff to the president, therefore, requested “prompt intervention” of security agencies in the matter.

The letter indicated that “a selection of some of the more egregious attacks of the past few months” were attached to aid security agencies in their investigations.

The biggest pen robber in Tinubu's government...


He is a very deadly fellow, just like a rat that would eat your skin and blow you breeze to cushion the pain.... That's what Femi is doing with Bulaba. (Forget Dirty Loyalty)

Remi Tinubu has been his saving grace, but the day Tinubu will take overdose of his favorite, that would be a bad day for Gbaja.


For now, let him play the saint.

They should channel the investigation to Lagos, this is coming from the home state.....

But... My question is... Do you have plan to become Lagos state governor or not?

If yes,... Then believe me, you have to look within...

The SSS should focus on our security problems.

They are not there to find solutions to the problems faced by politically exposed persons.

They should find solutions to the terrorism and criminality that is engulfing the country.

It's real cowardice to hide in one corner and start spreading falsehood about a person.

It's good he is doing something about it.

IPOB and Nnamdi Kanu are the bedrock of all security problems in the country. Look at Evans the kidnapper, and several drug trafficking

Perhaps, this advice should also be directed to your overnight messiah - Peter Obi.

You people have proven to all and sundry that you’re an expert at removing the speck from other people eyes, while leaving the log in your own eyes intact.

Your hypocrisy is the reason no sensible minds take you seriously.

Rather I think the SSS should investigate him to determine his innocence, instead of trying to use state power for intimidation.
