Abuja: The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has released the former Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, after hours of interrogations by the anti-graft team. Malami confirmed his release on his X account, stating that he had been released and scheduled for another meeting with investigators.
According to News Agency of Nigeria, Malami expressed that the reality behind the ‘fabricated allegations’ levelled against him would become clearer with time. He assured Nigerians of his commitment to keep them updated on his invitation by the EFCC, attributing his release to divine intervention.
The EFCC had summoned Malami through a letter dated November 24, signed by Sunday Ofen-Imu on behalf of its Chairman, Ola Olukoyede. The commission did not disclose the specific allegations for which Malami was invited, leaving the public in anticipation of further developments.
