Counsel to Ibrahim Magu, Tosin Ojaomo has insisted that his client was still in charge of the Commission.
Ojaomo said there is no official communication that Magu has been suspended.Addressing journalists in Abuja, Ojaomo assures that the truth concerning Magu’s current alligations would soon be revealed.
“The truth will soon be out. I was there today, but I couldn’t see him. They said I should come early in the morning so I will be there to apply for his bail. The news that someone has been appointed to replace him or that he is under suspension is not true. There is no letter of suspension. You will be shocked how this will end.”
Magu is currently being investigated for corruption and misconduct by a Presidency-backed panel.
The probe followed an indictment by the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami.
Malami also accused Magu of relooting recovered loot and insubordination.
The investigation had led to his suspension and EFCC reported to have picked Mohammed Umar to in his place pending the conclusion of the probe.
