Nigeria’s Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, has denied allegations that he bought a house worth N300 million for his son.
According to the allegation, the house is located in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja.
Reacting via a statement by his media aide, Dr. Umar Jibrilu Gwandu, released on Saturday, July 11, Malami denied the allegations.
Describing the allegations as fake news, Malami said: “For instance, who is the vendor of the purported house bought for the son of the Minister in Abuja at N300m? Where is the so-called mansion located in Abuja? Where are the title documents?
“God knows that I did not purchase any house for him in Abuja. Not even a rented house was secured for my son in Abuja, because he has no plan to live in Abuja”.
He also denied hiring private jets for the marriage of his son. The minister also disowned pictures and videos showing ceremonies linked with the wedding of his son said to have been observed without observance of social distancing.
The minister’ son, Abdulazeez Malami, got married on Saturday in Kano. Malami said the wedding took place under strict observance of the protocols and guidelines of the Presidential Taskforce on COVID-19.
