He said; “Sincerely, I need to tell you that this appointment came to me as a shock. There is still an unfinished assignment that was pending,”.

“I was expecting that the issue of Magu would have been sorted out before moving to another stage.

“Unfortunately, we just got this news today that the President has nominated a new Chairman, and his name has been forwarded to the Senate.”

Following a series of corruption allegations against the former EFCC boss, Magu was on July 10, 2020, suspended from office by President Buhari.

Mohammed Umar, the EFCC Director of Operations, had earlier taken charge of the agency’s activities.
