Obviously sensing that the Presidency may keep him in detention
indefinitely until he answers allegations made against him by the
Attorney-General, embattled Acting Chairman of the Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, may go on hunger
strike.
According to Vanguard, it was gathered, on Thursday, that some
politicians and other wealthy Nigerians and foreigners, who alleged that
they were duped by Magu and some operatives of the EFCC, are said to
have started forwarding petitions on how they were coerced to part with
huge sums of money and property under the guise of recovering ill-gotten
wealth.
Magu, still being interrogated by the Justice Ayo Salami-led
Presidential panel along with seven of his aides, reportedly got into
trouble after information got to the Presidency about some of his
dealings both in and outside the country.
The informants, according to sources, gave detailed information that
prompted a shocked Presidency to immediately order his arrest, while the
presidential panel was set up.
According to sources, people in rarefied circles of power, in and
outside the country put together the details and delivered to the
Presidency, prompting his arrest.
A Presidency source, Thursday night, said that Magu may not be released
from detention until he responds satisfactorily to all allegations
against him.
The source told Vanguard: “You are aware that they (detectives) have
searched his house. Detectives that carried out the search combed his
house. It was after the search that they arrested seven of his aides as
part of the probe.
“Justice Salami is simply carrying out stern instructions from the
Presidency over the issue of Magu and it was after he discovered that it
will be virtually impossible to grant him bail that Magu started
threatening to go on hunger strike, with a view to drawing public
sympathy.
“However, it was learned that when the Presidency got information about
his plans to go on strike, in insisted that the embattled EFCC acting
chairman will not be released until he returns all the money he was
accused of misappropriating.”
