However, in his reaction, spokesperson of the Commission, Edet Ufot said: “The report purports that ICPC is in receipt of a letter from the SGF informing the Chairman to proceed on compulsory leave beginning from October 26.

“It went further to impute perceived reasons for the alleged `sack’ of the chairman, quoting an anonymous ICPC source.

“However, no such letter or letters have been received in the Commission.”

Ufot added that ICPC had called the attention of relevant authorities to the publication for appropriate action.
