It comes after Nvidia's board gathered to discuss his future following revelations that he was having an affair with a Singapore-based business executive suspected of spying for China.

US Democrat House Minority leader Hakeem Jeffries says Congress is investigating the scandal.

"We need a classified briefing made available to members of Congress as it relates to the Nvidia situation and to the extent that our national security has been compromised, the American people deserve answers and we're going to work to make sure that happens.”
