EFCC Denies Political Persecution Claims by Bauchi Governor
The EFCC dismisses Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed's allegations of political persecution by Nyesom Wike, emphasizing its impartiality and commitment to executing its duties without bias. The anti-graft agency condemns the claims as baseless and misleading, highlighting that it operates independently and without political influence.
Governor Mohammed is reminded of his ongoing money laundering trial before assuming office in 2019. The EFCC urges him to focus on governing Bauchi State while allowing the agency to continue its mandate of sanitizing Nigeria's financial system in the public interest.
