The Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Ibrahim Magu, has come under serious attack online for misleading people with his statement that coronavirus is caused by corruption.

Magu had at the passing out parade of 281 cadets of the EFCC Detective Inspector Course-5, at the Nigerian Defence Academy, Kaduna, on Tuesday said that Corruption is the biggest tragedy to human kind.

He was quoted as saying, “And I strongly believe that even the coronavirus is caused by corruption,”

Coronavirus, now known as COVID-19, broke out in Wuhan China in December 2019.

The disease which has infected over 1500 medical workers in China and over 73,000 infected persons in 25 countries has not been determined, nor has a cure been found.

But, in reaction, some Nigerians on social media described the EFCC Boss as ‘ignorant’, others wondered why Nigerians are been led by people who make them a laughing stock.
