The management of The Parliament Diary has issued a strong public disclaimer, distancing itself from what it described as malicious and unfounded claims by unknown individuals alleging unpaid services linked to a recent event organised by the publication.
In a statement signed by its Publisher and Proprietor, Chief Enebuse, Precious Chukwudi, the organisation said its attention had been drawn to false representations being circulated within the National Assembly and among the general public, suggesting that certain individuals rendered services to the event and were yet to be paid.
The Parliament Cable Network Service Limited, publisher of The Parliament Diary, categorically denied the claims, stressing that no individual or entity, including anyone identified as “Despatcher”, rendered any form of service to the event in question.
The company maintained that it has no outstanding financial obligations to any such party.
The statement specifically urged officials of the National Assembly Service Commission, the Office of the Clerk to the National Assembly, and all directorates within the National Assembly to disregard the claims, describing them as deliberate attempts to tarnish the reputation of The Parliament Diary and its leadership.
According to the publisher, those behind the false allegations have been given a seven-day ultimatum to cease further dissemination of the claims, issue a full public retraction, and tender an unreserved written apology. Failure to comply, the statement warned, would attract legal action, including claims for defamation, damages, and injunctive relief, in line with Nigerian law.
The disclaimer, dated January 9, 2026, will be published both in print and online to ensure wide public awareness.
Chief Chukwudi reaffirmed the organisation’s commitment to integrity and professionalism, assuring stakeholders and partners of The Parliament Diary that the publication would continue to uphold high ethical standards in all its engagements.
