The Oodua Nationalist Coalition (ONAC) says the call for the sack of Abdulrasheed Bawa, EFCC chairman, is self-serving.
Samad UthmanThe Oodua Nationalist Coalition , an organisation of 25 pan-Yoruba groups, says the call for the sack of Abdulrasheed Bawa, chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission , is self-serving and not in the best interest of Nigerians.
The coalition added that the grounds for the call for Bawa’s sack based on contempt is an illogical proposition.for the sack of Bawa over contempt of court.The CSOs said Bawa must be sacked, claiming that he is a serial violator of court order and not fit to be the head of an agency that is supposed to sanitise the society.
“We are in the best position to resist this attempt to remove the EFCC Chairman for political reasons. The removal of the head of such a strategic organisation cannot be in the interest of Nigerians at this moment. We on the other hand call on politically exposed persons to stop the attacks on the EFCC,” the group said.
