Acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Magu, has reportedly responded to a query given to him by the Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami
Magu was last week issued a query by the AGF asking him to respond within 48 hours in compliance with the directive of President Muhammadu Buhari that top government officials accused of corruption be investigated.
It was learnt that Magu has responded to query, but not within the 48-hour ultimatum given to him by the AGF.
“The query was dated December 19 and delivered to Magu on the same date,” a source told the Punch.
“It was stated in the query that he must respond within 48 hours.”
Details of Magu’s reply are not yet known.
It is also believed that Babachir Lawal, secretary to the government of the federation (SGF), is part of the officials whose cases prompted the probe ordered by Buhari.
