Challenges Binance Executive to Undergo Lie Detector Test
- Safiu Kehinde
Former Nigerian Senator Ben Murray-Bruce has defended the National Security Adviser (NSA), Nuhu Ribadu, over the allegations filed against him by Binance Executive, Tigran Gambaryan.
Months after his release from detention, Gambaryan had, in a post on his X yesterday, accused Ribadu of demanding for billions in payouts to fund his future political ambition.
Reacting in a post on his X handle today, Bruce faulted Gambaryan’s allegation.
He claimed to have known Ribadu his entire life, vouching that the NSA cannot indulge in such act.
Murray, however, challenged Gambaryan to undergo lie detector test if he genuinely believed he claims he made.
“I have known Mallam Nuhu Ribadu my entire life, and I can say with absolute certainty that he is incapable of the allegations being levelled against him.
“I challenge @TigranGambaryan to undergo a lie detector test if he genuinely believes the claims he has made,” the ex-lawmaker wrote.
He further expressed displeasure over Gambaryan’s dragging of Nigeria’s name with he described as baseless accusations and fabricated evidence.
While reiterating his defense of Ribadu, Murray charged the Binance Executive to start writing a public apology to Nigeria over his claims.
“It is exhausting to witness individuals repeatedly dragging Nigeria’s name through the mud with baseless accusations and fabricated evidence.
“Gambaryan should consider himself fortunate to have been allowed to leave because if Nuhu had his way, I am supremely confident he would have ensured that he remained behind bars for a hundred years. I swear on my life—Girma is lying, and I demand that @TigranGambaryan submit to a lie detector test in a neutral country, excluding both the United States and Nigeria.
“Furthermore, I hope @TigranGambaryan begins drafting the public apology he will inevitably have to issue once he fails that test. Individuals like him must be decisively dealt with, ensuring that such reckless fabrications are not only exposed but also serve as a warning to other deceitful actors who seek to undermine Nigeria.” Murray added.
