The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has hitherto reacted to speculations on the removal of Ibrahim Magu as Acting Chairman of the commission.
The anti-graft agency, however tweeted via its official handle that: “There is no change of guards. #Alert: For the avoidance of any doubt, there is no “change of guards” at the EFCC. Ibrahim Magu remains the acting EFCC Chairman.”
“Purveyors of #fakenews concerning the EFCC are hereby warned to desist from such mischief as the anti-graft agency remains committed to its mission.”

Be that as it may, Magu’s purported removal is as a result of the recent debate, following the declaration by the Nigerian Senate that he is not regarded as the EFCC chairman.
