EFCC ban phone calls, visits to high-profile detainees

Following the release of former Minister of State for Defence, Musiliu Obanikoro and former presidential spokesman, Rueben Abati, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has placed a ban on all visits.

EFCC has also stopped all suspects and inmates from making phone calls to their lawyers, family members and loved ones.

Sources told our correspondent on Saturday that the development may not be unconnected to number of solidarity visits to many of the politicians in custody, including Bala Mohammed and Femi Fani-Kayode.

Newsmen were informed that the EFCC management issued the order in a circular from the office of Acting Chairman, Ibrahim Magu.
