Binance CEO Richard Teng claimed that Nigerian government officials are demanding a "significant payment" to resolve ongoing disputes. However, the Nigerian government denied these allegations and described Binance's accusations as a smear campaign to undermine criminal prosecution. 🚫 According to Teng's claims, the requested amount was specified, but Teng's blog post on May 7 only mentioned a secret crypto payment expected within 48 hours. Binance did not immediately respond to requests for comment from crypto.news.
