Buhari sacks Lamorde as EFCC Chairman, appoints Magu

Ibrahim Magu, a senior official of the Economic and Governance Unit of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has been elevated to the position of chairman of the commission.

According to SaharaReporters, the development follows Monday’s removal of Ibrahim Lamorde by the presidency.

Lamorde had held the position since 2011.
