The Senator Representing Kogi West Senatorial District, Dino Melaye has again taken a swipe at the Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Magu, describing him as unqualified to head the anti-graft agency. Senator Melaye made the remarks today on "Focus Nigeria" a live television programme aired on African Independent Television (AIT).


The Senator who was reacting to the decision of the Senate to reject the nomination of Magu made it clear that apart from credible intelligence report by the Department of State Services (DSS) which confirmed Magu as a liability to the agency, the Acting EFCC Chairman's performance during the screening exercise before the Senate was embarrassing, appalling and projected him as incompetent to hold the office.


According to the Senator, "Magu was not just disqualified on the basis of the DSS report alone. He came for a job interview and failed woefully before the Senate". The Senator also berated the EFCC for engaging in media trial of suspected corrupt politicians instead of carrying out painstaking investigation of corruption allegations in order to gather enough admissible evidence that could secure conviction in court. He submitted that as long as the EFCC is dominated by policemen, it would never evolve as a top-rank anti-graft agency.


The attack on MAGU has been on the rise lately. During the launch of Senator Dino Melaye’s book, “Antidotes for Corruption” Senate President Bukola Saraki accused the EFCC of engaging in public spectacle rather than the substance of corruption matters. He noted that professional anti-graft agencies the world over are usually insulated from political interference while carrying out thorough investigation. He added that with the present approach by the EFCC to the war on corruption Nigeria was still far from that ideal.
