How controversial DG lived in Oyo palace

DETAILS have emerged about how the controversial Director General of the alleged ghost agency, Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council (PFIPC), Prince Adeniyi Mathew Adeyemi, once lived in the Palace of the Alaafin of Oyo during the reign of the late monarch, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III.

Investigations conducted by one of the federal agencies mandated to dig into the matter from early 2025 revealed that the said DG was not related to the late monarch but that he grew up in the palace and adopted the title of prince.

Sources in the system confirmed to the Nigerian Tribune that Adeniyi Mathew’s situation caught the attention of the security agencies early last year and that a series of investigations were flagged off across locations, including educational institutions, business links and childhood locations.

It was gathered that he once lived in Oyo town and that he was traced to the Palace of the Alaafin of Oyo, where a top aide of the immediate past Alaafin Adeyemi confirmed to investigators that the said Prince Adeniyi Mathew Adeyemi was not in any way related to Oba Lamidi Adeyemi.

The top aide to the late monarch was also said to have confirmed that the surname of the controversial DG is Adeniyi, while his middle name is Mathew.
