Ex-Attorney-General Abubakar Malami Must Face EFCC Prosecution Despite Claims of Political Vendetta — Deji Adeyanju Insists
Human rights lawyer Deji Adeyanju has urged the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to proceed with the investigation and prosecution of former Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, dismissing his claims of political persecution as baseless. Adeyanju stressed that Malami must be held accountable for his actions while in office, particularly regarding issues linked to recovered public funds and the Abacha loot. He argued that public office demands transparency and that Malami, who previously wielded state power against others, cannot now evade scrutiny. The call comes amid Malami’s demand for the EFCC chairman to recuse himself from the probe and the commission’s insistence that its actions are lawful and apolitical.
