PRESS RELEASE: Leeman Communications Distances Self From Dasuki Arms Scandal by jk18: 12:39am On Jan 09, 2016
Leeman Communications, a PR consultancy firm registered in Nigeria has described as untrue and untoward, a report by an online news, Sahara Reporters, linking the firm to the ongoing arms scandal for which the former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, is facing court charges.

In a statement by the PR agency, the spokesman for the agency, Mr. Bolaji Adegbite, described the report as a blackmail and irresponsible journalism.

“We are concerned about this report published by Sahara Reporters linking our work with the arms scandal. We simply did a legitimate business with the government in 2014. It’s not our job to decide for the government from which of its account payment for our contract should be authorized.

“The news medium has acted unprofessionally in reporting the story and dragging the name of our Executive Director, Mr Lekan Fatodu into it, despite available evidence that Leeman Communications is a legal entity with legal right to do business in the country.

“We wish to state that Leeman Communications did not receive a donation from the office of the National Security Adviser as being cunningly puts out in a different manner by Sahara Reporters.

“Leeman Communications was not a front for Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode or any individual. There was no connection between our work with him and the arms scandal.”

No problem,the press release is unnecessary. Visit the ONSA as advertised and present your documents.

About 241 companies, individuals and organizations will go before the Office of National Security Adviser (ONSA) over contracts awarded by the office between 2011 and 2015.

The Nation reports that the office warned those involved to appear as those who do not, might be embarrassed.

ONSA, in an advertorial in this newspaper, said the companies and representatives of the organisations and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) must appear before its Contracts’ Verification Committee between January 12 and 26. It issued the directive following these companies’, NGOs’ and individuals’ failure to heed the earlier call on them to report at the committee.

They are to appear with: certificate of incorporation, particulars of directors, company tax clearance certificates and directors’ from 2011 to date, letter of award of contracts, evidence of payment so far, outstanding balance and any other documents considered relevant to the contract, such as certified bank statements.

You have to disclose the purpose of the contract and how much was paid to you. If not the next thing is for EFCC
In your own interest don't toe the line of Metuh who also admitted contract from jonadash but did not tell what purpose and how much, now he is cooling of in efcc net
