Senate President Ahmad Lawan has disowned a letter signed in his name and addressed to the President of the International Wealth Creation Bank, Michael Hendricks.
Senator Lawan in a tweet on Monday disowned the letter which was written by a supposed lawyer, Emeka Ani.
The letter dated July 3 said that the Nigerian government would make a payment of $1.6 trillion after $295 has been paid as ‘I.T.C waver’ by Hendricks.
It also said that the government would give permission for an unnamed ‘package’ to be released in New York, United States, through Aims Courier Company in three working days after order has been made.
In an effort to confirm the genuineness of the letter, Mr Hendricks tweeted at Lawan.
“Senate President Ahmed Ibrahim Lawan, I am retweeting this Legal Document below to your post as Infallible Proof that you are the genuine authority, originator. I need to know that Nigerian Govt support is transparent, not incognito: Public support is requirement,” Hendricks said.
In response, Lawan said: “Please ignore. It’s fake.”
