The screening of the acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Mr Ibrahim Magu, at Thursday’s plenary, has stalled as a result of poor attendance of lawmakers.
The Senate made this known on Thursday when it was initially scheduled to screen Mr Magu at the legislative proceedings.
The EFCC boss and other member nominees of the commission had earlier turned up at the beginning of plenary for the screening, but had to leave when it appeared that the screening exercise was not going to hold.
Briefing journalists after plenary, Senate deputy majority leader, Bala Ibn Na’allah, confirmed that the senate could not attend to the screening, because of the poor attendance of lawmakers.
He however stated that Mr Magu has officially been informed of the decision of the senate to reschedule the screening to next Thursday December 15.
