I Will Be Reinstated As EFCC Chairman – Says Magu

Magu spoke through his lawyer Mr Wahab Shittu, who said he had his instruction to give an update on the probe to Nigerians, according to Punch.

 “I have the instruction of Mr Magu to tell Nigerians that he is not against the ongoing probe,shitty said.

“Mr Magu asked me to tell Nigerians that he is not against the probe. The allegations against him are trumped up. He strongly believes that his name will be cleared and he will be reinstated back to office.”

Magu, who was suspended last week by the President, Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), over corruption allegations leveled against him at the ongoing proceedings of the Justice Ayo Salami-led presidential investigative panel, said the charges leveled against him were trumped up.
