FG allegedly plans to implicate, sack EFCC boss

Magu’s problem allegedly started when he reportedly did not allow some powerful people in the seat of power to meddle into EFCC’s affairs.

EFCC boss, Ibrahim Magu

According to Sahara Reporters, the Chief of Staff to President Buhari, Abba Kyari and the Senate President, Bukola Saraki are secretly planning to withdraw Magu’s letter of appointment.

Reports say the duo want to take back the letter, under the guise that the President needs to sign it.

Meanwhile, sources say the letter was already signed by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, while Buhari was in London for receiving treatment for his ear disease.

According to reports, the recent arrest of one of the members of the arms purchase probe panel by the Department of State Services (DSS) is another attempt by the state to implicate Magu.

Sources also reveal that the DSS is reportedly putting pressure on one Air Commodore Muhammad Umar to frame the EFCC boss up.

Attempts to verify the report by Sahara Reporters was unfruitful, as the President’s Special Assistant to the National Assembly Senate, Ita Enang, refused to comment on the matter.
