Magu had welcomed journalists for a press conference in celebration of his third year in office.

The acting EFCC manager had reeled out the accomplishments of the anti-graft agency in the last three years including a large number of convictions and recoveries. recuperations.

However, during the question and answer session, Magu was asked to confirm if the EFCC was investigating Ganduje who was allegedly caught on camera collecting kickbacks from contractors.

He just stated, “Next question please.”

The Kano State House of Assembly had begun investigations into the matter but was stopped by a court from going further.
