The chief of staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, Abba Kyari, says he has instructed his lawyers to file a libel suit against those who peddled bribery allegation against him.

During a recent radio programme on Berekete Family Radio 101.1FM, Abuja, one Bako Kyari, who identified himself as a nephew to the chief of staff, said Kyari and one Sani Ado, whom he claimed worked with the Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP), collected N29.9 million from him in order to facilitate the award of a contract.

However, in an email interview with TheCable, the chief of staff said there is no truth in the “malicious story”.

“I have instructed my lawyers to take legal action against all those who have peddled this falsehood,” he told TheCable.

He also said no amount of mud “will stick or stain my integrity”.

“There is no iota of truth whatsoever even in dreamland in this malicious story. We cannot allow reasoned and reasonable debate to be hijacked by the frenzied fantasies of a cynical and dishonest minority,” he said.

“A lie becomes no less of a lie simply by repetition.”
