President Buhari has suspended Ibrahim Magu as the Acting Chairman of
the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC), the BBC just
reported.
Magu reportedly spent the night in a police cell at the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) Headquarters in Abuja.
This followed a six-hour grilling by a presidential panel, chaired by
Justice Ayo Salami, a former president of the Court of Appeal.
Buhari set up the panel to probe various allegations levelled against
Magu, following a petition by the Minister of Justice and Attorney
General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, and the Department of State
Service (DSS).
