President Muhammadu Buhari has suspended the acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Magu.
According to reports, the suspension will subsist until a decision is taken on his matter.
The president Buhari had also set up a presidential panel headed by Justice Ayo Salami to probe the various corruption-related allegations leveled against the EFCC boss.
Thelagostimes recalls that on Monday, several reports claimed that Magu was arrested by the Department of State Services (DSS) over fraud allegations.
The DSS however, in a statement, debunked the news, adding that the EFCC boss was neither arrested nor invited for questioning.
