EFCC Debunks Enlistment Of Ex- Govs Under Investigation

The list of previous governors who are the subject of a corruption probe has not been released by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Dele Oyewale, Head of Media and Publicity, revealed in a statement provided to this news outlet on Sunday.

The statement read:

The report headlined:  ” EFCC Releases  Full List of 58 Ex- Governors  that Embezzled N2 .187 Trillion”, in one of the news outlets, is false and mischievous as the Commission neither issued the said list nor entertained discussions on investigation of ex-governors with any news medium.

This invariably means that the so-called list is a disingenuous fabrication designed to achieve motives known only to the authors.

The public is enjoined to ignore the report as it is false and misleading.

The media is advised to endeavour to crosscheck facts pertaining to matters under investigation with the Commission to avoid misleading the public with false and inaccurate reports.
