The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has withdrawn itself from the case of alleged N25 billion fraud filed against Former Gombe State Governor, Senator Danjuma Goje.
For almost eight years, the EFCC had been prosecuting the former governor until Friday. The case, which is before Justice Babatunde Quadiri of Jos Federal High Court II, has even gone to the Jos Court of Appeal over the remaining two counts out of the 21 charges filed against him by EFCC.
When the case came up for an emergency hearing before Justice Quadiri, the EFCC Counsel, Mr. Wahab Shittu, told Court that the agency was withdrawing from the case and handing it over the office of the Attorney-General for continuation.
Reacting to the new development, Reno Omokri says, 'Danjuma Goje withdraws from the Senate President's race in favour of Buhari 's anointed candidate, Farouk Lawan, and the next day the EFCC withdraws from his corruption case. I like the way Buhari fights corruption!'.
