"I almost l0st my job as Chief of Staff to President Tinubu last year. President Tinubu called to his Abuja house during the Obasa imp£achm£nt saga and asked me if Desmond Elliott was my boy. I replied to the president that he's my boy.
President Tinubu then told me that he heard that Desmond was part of the people causing pr©bl£ms in the Lagos State House of Assembly.
Immediately, I told the President that Desmond wasn't part of them, but the president replied to me and said that from the intelligence he got, Desmond was part of them.
After that meeting, I called Desmond and told him what the president said and asked him to leave the group if he was part of them.
Three days later, the DSS DG called me and said there's a pr©bl£m. He said your name is being mentioned that you're the one behind the imp£achm£nt saga and that you're supporting Desmond.
I told the DSS DG I've spoken to Desmond and he denied being part of the group. I then called Desmond to make a public statement to deny his involvement in the imp£achm£nt saga, but till today, he hasn't done it.
