I am not under probe by FG -Baraje

A chieftain of All Progressives Congress ( APC ), Alhaji Kawu Baraje, on Friday said he was not under probe by the federal government.

Baraje, according to a statement, said President Goodluck Jonathan's administration was not probing him over some contracts he awarded while in office.

He stated that the rumour of his probe was not only untrue but unfounded and a calculated attempt by some of his detractors to smear his name.

He claimed not to have awarded any shady contract during his tenures as acting Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party; the Chairman of the Nigerian Railway Corporation, and the Chairman Nigeria Airspace Management Agency.

Baraje also debunked rumours that he was ill.
He stated that he travelled to London and later to the US to attend crucial meetings before he would return back to Nigeria.
