Nigerians Reaction Over Magu’s Integrity

The embattled acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu was on Monday taken forcibly to Aso villa By officers of the Department for State Service, DSS, haven declined pervious invitations by the Presidential Panel.

The Justice Ayo Salami-led Presidential panel probes him on the disposal of assets worth N37 billion and to account for 380 houses and seven vessels loaded with crude oil.

Magu is being grilled, following allegations raised against him by Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami(SAN).

News on the arrest of the ex-EFCC boss and the bewilderment over his integrity, below are some of the social media reactions: Very funny, well is hard to trust anyone but I strongly feel these allegations are baseless.

Although I support the probe because no one is above the law, but if it’s vendetta as rumored then the country must apologize to him.

Tubor King (@oytubor)  Lol Diezani be laughing real hard right now

Onye Chi Ya akwatughi (@ojasankara) Like several others in this mistake of an administration, Magu took advantage of the President’s mental unavailability to carry out his own agenda.

Henry Shield (@henryshield)  Is there a law that says EFCC chairmen must come from northern Nigeria ?

Nigeria of my dream is where any Nigerian from any part of Nigeria can be whatever they want to be.

Hamma (@HAHayatu) KARMA HAS NO DEADLINE. KARMA HAS NO MENU, YOU GET SERVED WHAT YOU DESERVE. PEOPLE WHO CREATE THEIR OWN DRAMA, DESERVE THEIR OWN KARMA.

Senator Dino Melaye. (SDM)  If you don’t like the fact the Buhari keeps appointing Northerners Lobby for Economic restructuring, focus your energy on taking away power from Abuja In Nigeria, govt appointment is nothing but feudalism( quota system) If they give am to your village man, it won’t benefit you

William (@SirWilliam) The Permanent Secretary, Mr. Sunny Okere has been sacked with immediate effect for flouting and obstructing the enforcement of the guidelines.

This would serve as a lesson to all other public officers who may wish to be irresponsible.

(@GovWike) So EFCC raided Abdulsalaam Abubakar’s house, found nothing, yet the General didn’t say anything to the media? Lol.

The real folks with power in Nigeria move differently. Anyone you see always running to the media, don’t blame them. Real power no really dey like that.

JJ. Omojuwa (@Omojuwa) Fact is, you can’t bring someone from already corrupted environment to fight corruption.

Police & Custom are training ground for thieves.

The best is, we outsource Nigeria governance.

Go full federalism. Nobody can redeem Nig as is now. We need an umpire, who’s here for true govt.

Mr Right (@OtunMuri) A law should be made that once you’re caught of been corrupt you will be sentenced to death, REAL KILLING O! — Chris

(@Chrisgbakogu) Hushmagu

Dickson Solomon (@DicksonSolomo13)  Worst government in the history of Nigeria. Now we can see that corruption is not an APC or PDP thing.

The entire system is corrupt — ETSAKO MAN (@AGItiekhao)

Isaac Anyama (@isaac_anyama) and you people are quick to point fingers at hushpuppi

chromeboi (@chromeboi)  Ahhh….380 houses kilode all these including 7 ships of crude oil ahhh,if them no jail this man ehn then this gov is the real founder of corruption.

Omo iya Nurse (@ElijahMoyosore) Am I dreaming or what? These can’t be true o.

EFCC acting chairman? Please can this case be transferred to the FBI…

SKJ (@SegeJohnson)  There is no hope in this administration war on corruption. It’s all a scam.

Imagine the head of the crusade having this much dirt

Jonathan Izi Victor (@Mr_Izi19)  He remains innocent until proven otherwise, however, there’s no smoke without fire, this must been investigated to a logical conclusion.

Samuel Alabi (@sambolad)  Hehehehe remind us who proved Diezani guilty again?

James (@James77084863) Oh mine!!! U mean MUGU is so neck deep in corruption, mismanagement ad debauchery to cart away 380house,7ships of crude oil ad billions of Naira in asset.

Ogbeni yi ti sink Nigeria….

Jeremiah(Apoti Eri) (@jeolaolarewaju)  So easy to criticize this guy. Anti corruption fight must have swallowed him.

I don’t believe he would’ve been so daft to attempt to hide all these when fighting corruption.

The government is insincere in this so-called corruption fight. — mindyumout (@mindyumout)
