BREAKING: Sagay Reveals His ‘Level Of Involvement’ In P&ID Case (DETAILS)

Professor Itse Sagay (SAN), a prominent legal figure, has categorically refuted any involvement in the contentious Process & Industrial Developments Limited (P&ID) case.

Nigeria achieved a significant milestone by successfully overturning a $10 billion judgment that was initially awarded against it in this case. Judge Ross Cranston of the Business and Property Courts of England and Wales granted Nigeria’s application for sanction relief.

Sagay, who formerly chaired the Presidential Advisory Committee against Corruption (PACAC) in the previous administration, clarified that he was erroneously mentioned in the judgment as having played a role in the deal, despite having no actual involvement in it.

He said: “There is a report that I was involved in the P & ID case, that Olasupo Shasore wrote to me asking me to write an opinion in support of Nigeria in the case, and that after I studied the papers, I wrote back to him that the opinion written by Justice Belgore in favour of P&ID was so strong that Nigeria’s position is very, very bad, and that it would take a great deal of intellectual and other efforts to be able to dent it. My name is in the judgment.

“I wish to state that under no circumstances did Shasore ever write to me. I know nothing about the P&ID case. I’m just seeing it for the first time. I have nothing to do with P&ID.

“I will never be involved in anything that will run Nigeria down or denigrate Nigeria in any way. I am completely innocent.

“So, the whole statement reported in the judgment that Shasore wrote to me and that I replied that their case was very strong and the report written by Justice Belgore on behalf of P&ID is very strong and that it will take a lot of hard work to dent it – not me.

“It’s a manufactured story and is absolutely untrue. I have absolutely nothing to do with P&ID.”
