'SARAKI, IN INTERVIEW WITH ME, SPEAKS ON MAGU, ALI AND NIGERIA-MOROCCO RELATIONS
TVC News, Dakhla - The Nigerian Senate has denied rejecting EFCC Acting Chairman, Ibrahim Magu because of corruption allegations saying lack of consultation and indictment by security reports meant it had no choice than to follow institutional procedures.
Senate President, Bukola Saraki disclosed this in an interview with TVC News Sumner Sambo in Dakhla, Morocco where he is attending an African Summit on climate change and food security with other senators'
Saraki also says the Presidency's failure to consult widely on Magu's nomination or on issues such as the summon of Customs Comptroller General, Hamid Ali, is denying it of goodwill among senators.
We really had some good laughter when I asked whether he was personally stopping Magu as being alleged to which he said he had nothing personal against the Acting EFCC boss or Sen. Ali Ndume'
