BREAKING NEWS: Why We’re Yet To Charge El-Rufai To Court – EFCC
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has explained why it has yet to charge the former Governor of Kaduna State, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, to court, despite his three-day interrogation.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that El-Rufai was held in EFCC’s custody for two nights, from Feb. 16 to Feb. 18, over corruption allegations levelled against him.
A source close to the commission told NAN that the former governor was still under investigation by the commission, hence he could not be charged in court yet.
The source said the commission would not rush to court over the grievous allegation, but would want to do a thorough and professional job of it before being charged in court.
“We are still investigating the former governor; we are yet to conclude our investigations, before he was released on bail last Wednesday.
“Though he was taken into custody by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), we immediately released him. We will continue our investigations after he completes the ICPC.
