The presidency told Nigerians on Sunday to prepare for shocking revelations from the presidential panel probing the suspended embattled acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Magu, for mismanagement of recovered funds.
Magu was arrested on July 6 over alleged corruption and other related offences such as mismanagement of recovered funds by the EFCC, Unable to account for 332 recovered asset, Insubordination to the AGF, Not providing enough evidence for the extradition of Diezani Alison-Madueke, Ignoring court order to unfreeze a N7 billion judgment in favour of a suspect, among others.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, who disclosed this on a Channels Television’s programme, “Politics Today,” said the presidency had been receiving some little updates from the panel, adding that the findings would surprise Nigerians.
“I guess this is a question for the Justice Ayo Salami panel and I must say that panel is composed of some of this country’s most honoured people with integrity who will do the right thing.
“I am not going to pre-empt the panel investigation but I just advice Nigerians to hold their hearts in their hands. By the time they are done with this job and they come out with the reports prepare yourselves for surprises.
“I don’t know what will come out but if the sense we are getting from what is being done over there is anything to go by, I think that Nigerians should not be confused by any outbursts by anybody.” He said.
