The former Executive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Nuhu Ribadu, is allegedly making frantic moves to displace the embattled Acting Chairman of the EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, who the Senate has refused to confirm, due to damning security report.
Ribadu, was alleged to have said: “Anti-graft war is not all about media frenzy, but genuine commitment to the total eradication of corruption from the system. I am sorry to say that we are losing the war against corruption, because the drivers of the anti-corruption vehicle, are more interested in drama and media hype, than the actual national goal.
“It is preposterous to unlawfully incarcerate alleged corrupt elements for months, just to find evidence against them, and when you finally charge them to court, you fail to present evidence, but start begging Judges to help the President fight corruption, as if we are in a banana republic.
“This is certainly not the EFCC of my dream, and I am very sure that this is not what President Muhammadu Buhari meant, when he promised to fight corruption during the electioneering.’’
In swift move, Nuhu Ribadu dissociated himself from a statement purportedly credited to him.
Reacting to the statement trough his Twitter handle Monday evening, Ribadu said he was 100 percent in support of the anti-corruption fight of the EFCC being spearheaded by Magu.

I hereby dissociate myself from that manufactured mischief in its entirety. It’s nothing but a fake news that doesn’t represent my view.

I’ve nothing but respect for those spearheading current anticorruption efforts. My support for the EFCC & Mr. Ibrahim Magu is 100 percent.
