Hakeem Odumosu has denied being appointed as EFCC Chairman by President Tinubu.

 

NewsOnline Nigeria reports that Hakeem Odumosu, a retired Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIG)  has denied reports that he was appointed as a substantive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Nigeria’s anti-graft agency.

This online news platform understands that reports emerged on Tuesday, June 20, 2023, suggesting that Odumosu’s appointment by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is subject to confirmation by the Senate.

 

NewsOnline Nigeria recalls that President Bola Tinubu suspended the former chairman of the anti-corruption agency, Abdulrasheed Bawa for misconduct while in office. Bawa was subsequently invited by the Department of State Services (DSS) for questioning.

 

However, in a statement issued and signed by Odumosu on Wednesday morning regarding his appointment as EFCC Chairman, he denied being aware of such an appointment.

Hakeem Odumosu described the circulation of the appointment as fake and urged Nigerians to disregard the report.

 

The statement by Hakeem Odumosu reads thus; ”Good Morning, everyone, I have been inundated with so many calls and messages between yesterday and today on a purported “EFCC Appointment”. I just want to use this opportunity to debunk this information and say it’s totally untrue.

 

“This information must have emanated from mischief makers and should be totally disregarded,” he said.
