Tosin Ojaoma, a Lawyer to the suspended Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, has said that his Client has not been suspended, as widely reported,
Page 36 recalls that Magu was arrested on Monday afternoon, by Security Operatives, and hauled to the Presidential Villa, to face an inter-Agency Panel investigating him over allegations of corruption and misconduct. He is still in Police custody.
Speaking on the development, Ojaomo told Journalists that his Client has not been suspended.
“The truth will soon be out. I was there today (Wednesday), but I could not 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.”
He disclosed that he will be filing for a bail application for his Client on Thursday morning, adding that, he is yet to see “any court order permitting his detention for more than 48-hours”.
