President Buhari Resubmits Ibrahim Magu’s Name As EFCC Chairman by masterpiece86: 12:16pm On Jan 21, 2017 |
President Muhammadu Buhari has once again submitted the name of Ibrahim Magu, the current acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), as his candidate for the substantive chairmanship of the anti-corruption agency. A highly placed source at the Presidency told Saharareporters today that Mr. Magu’s name had been forwarded to the office of the Nigerian Senate President Bukola Saraki. “I can confirm that President Buhari submitted Ibrahim Magu’s name just before he began a 10-day vacation in Britain on Thursday,” the presidential source revealed. In a controversial move, the Senate had two months ago rejected Mr. Magu as the substantive leader of the EFCC. In refusing to confirm Mr. Magu, some senators claimed that they were relying on a security report prepared by the Director-General of the Department of State Services (DSS), Lawal Daura, which accused Magu of acting in a high-handed manner as well as being entangled in a conflict of interest with an allegedly corrupt Nigerian businessman. Following the Senate’s rejection of Mr. Magu, President Buhari set up a panel led by the Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, to probe the allegations against the acting EFCC chairman. It remains unclear whether Mr. Malami’s report cleared Mr. Magu of any wrongdoing. Saharareporters had revealed that certain interests within the Presidency were opposed to Mr. Magu’s confirmation as substantive head of the EFCC. http://saharareporters.com/2017/01/21/president-buhari-resubmits-ibrahim-magu’s-name-efcc-chairman 10 Likes 1 Share |

MAGU must be confirmed dole. "Prof. Jubril Aminu was once the VC of University of Maiduguri. During his tenure, there was an Aluta struggle and some students were rusticated. Four of the rusticated students came to Gani Fawehinmi to challenge the action. He fought the case to the Supreme Court and won. The students went back to complete their studies. Later, Gani was arrested over his anti-SAP conference and was flown to Maiduguri, then driven to Gashua. At the Lagos airport, not knowing where he was being taken to by the security men, Gani played a fast one - he told his captors that he wanted to use the toilet. He got inside the toilet and quickly scribbled on a toilet paper - "To whoever uses this toilet, this is Gani Fawehinmi. I am being flown to an unknown destination by security men. Please, let the world know". He placed it in a conspicuous place, flushed the toilet as if he just used it and came out. When they got to Maiduguri, they had a brief stop over at the SSS office, where a lady officer offered Gani a cup of coffee. Gani was hooked on coffee like drug. But this time, the will power of Gani came on. He told the lady officer -"so you people have got information that l can't do without coffee. You think you can poison me? From, today, I stop taking coffee ". That was how he ended his addiction to coffee. He was later moved to Gashua prison, in a most decrepit cell where he collapsed after some substances were sprayed in the cell. He was rushed to the University of Maiduguri Teaching hospital. When he regained consciousness, he found a doctor examining him and he protested, asking the doctor not to touch him. The doctor, not wanting the security men guarding him to hear, he whispered to Gani's ear - "Chief, you are in safe hands. Can't you recognise me? I am....., one of the medical students rusticated whom you fought for our reinstatement. I am now a doctor. So, relax. You are in safe hands". And that was how Gani's life was saved - reaping from the good deeds he did earlier, which he had forgotten"- Richard Akinnola.... Moral of this real life story: Be good always and it shall come back to you!!!! Do have a blessed weekend. 133 Likes 9 Shares |

. Buhari's way of fighting corruption. I wonder how this magu would have the mind to accuse people of being corrupt. Maybe from now on buhari would set up a panel to investigate anyone who is being accused of corruption, since he set up a panel for magu. 2 Likes |
