The Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) has reacted to speculation that Ibrahim Magu would be removed
as the acting chairman of the anti-graft agency.
In a tweet sent out from its
official handle on Tuesday morning, the commission insisted “there is no change
of guards”.
The update read: “#Alert: For the
avoidance of any doubt, there is no “change of guards” at the EFCC. Ibrahim
Magu remains the acting EFCC Chairman.
“Purveyors of #fakenews
concerning the EFCC are hereby warned to desist from such mischief as the
anti-graft agency remains committed to its mission.”
Yesterday, the Chairman,
Presidential Advisory Committee on Anti-Corruption, PACAC, Prof. Itse Sagay,
also dismissed speculations that Magu has been sacked.
His ‘removal’ has been a subject
of debate in the last few days, following the declaration by the Nigerian
Senate that it he is not regarded as EFCC chairman.
