A senior state official is facing reputational challenges after a close relative reportedly exploited his name to request favors from businessmen and top public servants.
According to sources, complaints about the misuse of the official's identity have reached key government offices, prompting urgent efforts to mitigate the fallout. Rather than targeting the relative, the focus has largely been on officials who may have facilitated the solicitations.
In response, the official is said to be deliberately distancing himself from the family member to safeguard his public image, which has been carefully maintained over time.
