Laolu Akande, ex-spokesperson of former Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, has denied remarks by Babachir Lawal, a chieftain of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), concerning events that preceded the 2023 presidential election.
Lawal served as secretary to the government of the federation (SGF) from 2015 to 2017, when former President Muhammadu Buhari sacked him over alleged corruption.
