A civil society organisation, the
Human and Environmental Development Agenda (HEDA) has accused Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation (AGF), Abubakar Malami, SAN, of misleading President Muhammadu Buhari over claims that the policy litigation and dispute surrounding an Oil Prospecting Licence 245 (OPL 245) was driving investors away from the country.
HEDA, in a letter addressed to Buhari on Monday signed by its Chairman, Olanrewaju Suraju, said the alleged deceit by Malami has led to a series of financial losses which Nigeria has experienced in the oil facility.
The group alleged that the Minister was also misleading the country, accusing him of failing in his duty to provide the President with the facts to make informed decisions on the matter, and of being disrespectful to both the President and his office.
