The suspended acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Magu, has been invited by the Code of Conduct Bureau for questioning over a secret account which he allegedly failed to declare.
According to Peoples Gazette, Magu was invited via a letter with reference number CCB/HQ/II&M/007/2093 dated November 2, 2020, and he is expected to appear before the anti-corruption agency on November 17th.
The suspended EFCC boss was asked to come along with acknowledgment copies of all asset declaration forms since joining the public service as well as his payslips and land documents.
“The bureau is investigating a case of alleged breach of Code of Conduct for Public Officers against Mr. Ibrahim Mustapha Magu, the former acting Chairman, Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
“You are expected to come along with certified true copies of the following documents: Acknowledgment slips of all your asset declarations to Code of Conduct Bureau since you joined the public service.
“Copies of your appointment letter, acceptance, records of service and payslips from January to May 2020. All documents of your landed property, both developed and undeveloped,” the letter partly reads.
KanyiDaily had reported that Magu is being probed by Justice Ayo Salami-led presidential panel over allegations of corruption, insurbodination and re-looting of recovered funds under his watch as the acting EFCC chairman.
