[LequteMan]

Former Nigerian president Olusegun Obasanjo has denied having anything to do with ex-CEO of the Olusegun Obasanjo Foundation, Anne Welsh, after she admitted using the foundation as a front to operate a "well-oiled money-laundering scheme for many years," Premium Times reports.



“We have asked the two authorities to investigate the matter exhaustively,” Mr. Obasanjo said.

Obasanjo also said his Foundation had already contacted personalities mentioned or photographed with Mrs Welsh in the publication that revealed the deal as well as other dignitaries and partners to inform them that” she has now become a persona non grata with the Foundation and its Chairman/Founder”.

“The CEO of the Foundation at that time was Franklin Lisk,” the former President said
