Magu’s Lawyer Queries Secrecy of Presidential Panel’s Proceedings
A member of the suspended Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission , Mr. Ibrahim Magu’s legal team yesterday queried the secrecy surrounding the proceedings of the seven-man presidential panel probing allegations of malfeasance against him.
He also wondered why Magu has not been served with the allegations against him by the panel and why the panel has allowed witnesses testimonies behind him. “The panel is bound to observe the principles of natural justice. These are very important issues to be considered. The first thing to be done is to confront him with the allegations,” he said.
“There is a sinister move and Nigerians should be watchful. The people they are bringing to the panel are enemies of Ibrahim Magu.”
