During his time at the EFCC, he led investigations into the affairs of officials including former Delta Governor James Ibori and current Senate President, Bukola Saraki.

Magu is a recipient of USG and London Metropolitan Police institute training.

He reportedly worked with Ribadu to jail his brother-in-law and former Bank of the North chief, Shettima Bulama. Bulama was later pardoned by former President Goodluck Jonathan.

He is a Chief Superintendent of Police.

The Twit said Yaradua pardoned Bulama but because you are probably a yoruba man who hates GEJ you changed the Name in your post.
This is the height of evil and wickedness

No man ( region) have the monopoly of knowledge. Now Magu has been in EFCC for long and his years of experience would come handy and He appears to be the most senior officer (I stand to be corrected) and He has been picked because of these qualities.Its far better to pick qualified people to fill positions rather than looking for ways to make the so called federal character.........i rest my case.NB....please spell North properly...

He might actually be the most senior officer and well qualifies as you stated. Remember Nigeria Custom have senior and well qualified personnel that would have taken over from their ex-boss as the civil service demands but he choose to go resurrect an old fellow from retirement.

The truth is that your president is too sentimental about his region and Kings men and it's not good for our nation.

Lol at my spelling of 'nut' cheesy cheesy. Correction taken. #North#

Well.....you are right to an extent,the custom case is another big kettle of fish.....most of the so called qualified officers are way too ..............exactly! and the country needs the revenue from custom,which the officers am sure cant deliver......i am not saying there are no others but lets give the man atleast a little time.........tnx for making the needful corrections,we owe the country a duty to keep away tribalism,nepotism,regionalism and senseless religious riot....if PMB messes up then we use our PVC........ i rest my case.

How does this make him the best candidate to stop corruption in Nigeria? Abeg Boneee! With the level of Corruption we have in Nigeria, someone wants to make me believe dat this 'dwarf' profile will put a stop to the greatest enemy to our country... mtchew! Make dem go do corruption law reform abeg, Increase Jail Term for Public Servant/Public Office Holder's embezzlement from 18 months to 50 years; Fraud hitting N100billion attracts death penalty by beheading. Then, use one useless Legislator for the 50 yr jail term and one stupid Governor for Beheading as scapegoats after prosecution. You will see how those accomplice(ing) Bankers will adjust their tie and get back to the field. I know Judges waiting for bribe will re-tie their trouser rope (okun sokoto) hard because of hunger. Less we need somebody like Magu or Magun or wetin wetin you call am.... To do investigation is tedious, but getting justifying judgement kills corruption!
