Sagay: Magu Will Be EFCC Chairman Whether The Senate Likes It Or Not by ijebuloaded(m): 7:47pm On Dec 15, 2016
Itse Sagay, chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee on Corruption, says the appointment of Ibrahim Magu, chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), will be “renewed” whether he is confirmed or not.

On Thursday, the senate refused to confirm Magu’s appointment after leaving the matter pending for five months.

But in a previous chat with The Interview, which was only revealed on Thursday, Sagay said: “Whether they like it or not, he (Magu) will be there. His chairmanship will keep on being renewed.

“Since Nuhu Ribadu left, we have not had a man with such sterling qualities as Ibrahim Magu and whether they like it or not, Magu will be there until he completes his term under the law.”

The EFCC chairman has a four-year tenure. From the EFCC Act, non-confirmation does not impair his duties.

Azu Ishiekwene, managing editor (MD)/editor-in-chief, described the edition as “arguably the best kept secret in the anti-corruption war”.

In the interview, Sagay said Magu’s delayed confirmation was “corruption fighting back”.

Also speaking on corruption in the judiciary, he said what retiring chief justices collect off the books is “frightening and totally unrelated to what the judiciary is entitled to”.

The National Judicial Council (NJC) recently suspended seven justices on allegations of corruption and two of them have so far been arraigned.

The Interview said its investigations, which Sagay neither confirmed nor denied, indicated that the NJC pays retiring justices up to N800m in cash and provides a house valued at N500m, off the books.

The practice started around 2010 and virtually all retired CJs have benefited from it.

“Something very serious is happening there,” Sagay said.

“Those rumours have some basis.”

Nigerians, behold one of the men that turned Buhari's people oriented government into a political war against the opposition.

This is the man that advised Buhari to sack every employee under 19 months recruited during Jonathan's administration.

Even Donald Trump knows probing Hillary e-mail will polarise the country hence he is vowing to make America great again by providing job opportunity for willing jobseekers.

The Senate is a joke.

Soon, they'll have a reason to confirm Magu.

They did more than this with confirmation of ministerial nominees then.

There was also more deafening noise when the sting operations on those wigged thieves called judges was carried out but today we know who is the boss in charge.

You can't boss PMB around as you like just because you're a shamelessly corrupt group.

Why didn't the shameless senate refuse their confirmation. That was a valid ground to reject them but since they're not directly affected by those ones, they glossed over their obvious inability to recite the anthem.

Magu will remain the EFCC Chairman except PMB has a deadlier person to use.

Why is nobody talking about the DSS damning indictment against Magu which the Senate relied on to stall the confirmation? The earlier we understand that the cabal in the presidency is very powerful and they are people running the whole show and not the president, the better for all of us..

As long as there exist morally compromised individuals like this who hold brief for corruption who insist that stolen moneg should be forgotten and left in the past then is there any wonder why CHANGE BEGINS WITH YOU? Why don't you go ahead and steal in America and shout political victimization and see observe the dirty slap that the judge will hand you.

Sagay God bless you and God punishment be upon the looters who diverted trillions for the smelly reelection bid of a nonchalant drunken failure may He restore the senses of the many fools who defend these thieves out of their abundance of stewpidity. Amin

Lol.. ..like seriously I don't understand you. Magu's rejection was base on a report from the DSS, thought you read it. Why is everyone blaming the Senate?
Same DSS that gave Nigerians reasons why some judges should be prosecuted which you supported fully is still the one giving the Senate reasons(security reasons) why Magu shouldn't be cleared. See, Politics is very complex and one needs to always be in the right cabal Which Magu is not in. Truth is some people In Aso Rock are the ones fighting Magu .
What goes around comes around.

I look up to no politician and I believe Prof Sagay has no relevance even though he heads the presidential anti-corruption advisory committee. He has no right whatsoever to control the National Assembly. If the National Assembly says no to Magu's confirmation, then NO it is.

Prof Sagay's opinion holds no water in this matter, the best he can do is to advise PMB on choice of another suitable candidate.
