Protest Rocks Abuja Over Appointment Of EFCC Chairman
The group, under the umbrella of the Centre For Democracy and Human Rights, held several placards, calling on President Bola Tinubu and the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio to immediately discontinue the appointment.
The angry protesters marched to the gate of the National Assembly, after which they proceeded to submit their petition against the appointment, to the leadership of the National Assembly.
Secretary General of the group, Adebayo Lion Ogorry, said “It is important to note that the EFCC Extant laws remain sacrosanct and need to be strictly adhered to before going ahead to appoint a chairman for the Commission.
President Tinubu as the number one citizen, whose office is the creation of the law, needs to comply with the EFCC Extant Laws and not be seen to set a wrong precedence for successive administrations in making his appointment, which can slip the country into a state of anarchy.
