  • Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari has suspended the head of the country's anti-graft body over allegations of ethics breaches, the attorney general's office said on Friday. Ibrahim Magu, chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), is being questioned by a special committee probing allegations of insubordination and sales of seized assets. Magu's suspension is "to allow for unhindered inquiry by the Presidential Investigation Panel under the Tribunals of Inquiry Act and other relevant laws," the attorney-general's office in Abuja said in a statement. It said the president had also appointed Mohammed Umar, an EFCC director, to oversee the agency "pending the conclusion of the ongoing investigation." Magu, a no-nonsense senior policer, was appointed in 2016 as a key figure in Buhari's anti-corruption campaigns. He has been questioned since Monday. In June, the attorney-general sent a memo to Buhari detailing a raft of allegations against Magu that were leaked to the press. He accused the anti-graft head of selling off assets that had been recovered during corruption investigations and of "insubordination". Critics said the moves aimed at getting rid of Magu and were part of a tussle for control at the top of Nigeria's opaque elite. ean-joa/ri
