Ex-EFCC Prosecutor, Obla, Writes Presidential Panel
A Senior of Advocate of Nigeria and former prosecutor with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission , Chief Godwin Obla, has written to the Presidential Investigation Committee on Alleged Mismanagement by EFCC of Federal Government Recovered Assets and Finances, from May 2015 – May 2020, explaining how the suspended acting Chairman of the commission, Mr. Ibrahim Magu, used his power to harass and persecute his perceived enemies.
He narrated how Magu detained him for 21 days on the allegation that he bribed a judge of Federal High Court, Justice Rita Ofili Ajumogobia, to procure the conviction of a former Director-General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, , Mr. Temisan Omatseye. He said his ordeal began when he demanded his fees after Magu had disengaged him from further handling of the commission’s cases.
He asked the panel to investigate how Magu compromised the pension fraud cases the prosecution of which he said had gained traction before Magu suddenly asked him to hands off the cases.
