Mr. Ibrahim Magu, Acting Chairman, Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has escaped death by whiskers.
Ibrahim Magu
Gunmen invaded his farmhouse on Tuesday December 12th, 2017 and killed a policeman. Sources said that the gunmen stormed the farmhouse in Karshi, Abuja at about 10pm and exchanged fire with the policemen on duty. A police Sergeant was hit in the shootout and died instantly.
This is the second time that the same house will be attacked by gunmen. The EFCC boss has been facing tough times because of his refusal to bow to pressure from some high-profile suspects and Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs).
Some suspected elements had also been prowling the family’s house in the Borno State capital and issuing threats to his mother. This latest attack came barely 48 hours after Magu said the anti-corruption will be a do-or-die affair.
