[VIDEO] Pandora Papers: I didn’t violate any law ~ Peter Obi
Former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi has denied allegations of criminal secret business dealings contained in the leaked Pandora Papers.
The Pandora Papers revealed the concealed fortunes in offshore tax havens and, in some cases, money laundering by some of the most powerful people in the world.
Speaking on Monday during an interview with Arise News, Obi dismissed the report by Premium Times which disclosed that the former governor had concealed a number of offshore businesses and investments when he was at the helm of affairs in Anambra State.
According to Musikilu Mojeed, Editor-in-Chief of Premium Times, Obi may have violated the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act by not declaring his or that of his family’s beneficial ownership in the said assets.
Mojeed, who was on the show last week, added that the former governor flouted the Nigerian Constitution by operating a foreign bank account while in office and may have concealed his offshore investments to avoid tax.
