Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Magu, was yesterday at the Presidential Villa to see President Muhammadu Buhari.
It was not clear whether he was able to see the president who was inaugurating the National Research and Innovation Council (NRIC) at about the same time.
On returning from the president office, State House correspondents sought to interview him but he declined, saying: “not now, not now.”
Magu’s visit to the Villa came barely 24 hours after the EFCC arrested Buhari’s ally and chieftain of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and former Military Administrator of Kaduna state, Brig. Gen. Lawal Ja’afaru Isa.
LEADERSHIP recalls that the EFCC boss on Wednesday disclosed that the anti corruption agency would soon go after influential people who have allegations of corruption hanging on their necks.
