We Have Never Disobeyed Court Orders – Magu

The Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Mr. Ibrahim Magu, yesterday said the anti-graft agency would never disobey a court’s order.

Magu, who spoke with reporters at the commission’s headquarters in Abuja, said the agency was open in its operation.

He said: “I assure you that we will never disobey a court’s order. We will never disobey court order and we have never disobeyed court order.

“The anti-corruption war is not about me or EFCC. It is about the entity called Nigeria. We need the support of the media so that Nigerians will support our cause.

“Without your support, we cannot function and succeed. We need to synergise to make the anti-corruption war achievable.”

Magu promised to be transparent in managing the EFCC.

“We are very open with what we are doing unlike before. I am not saying that we will be conducting our investigation on the pages of newspapers but whatever you need to know, you will know.”
