Embattled acting EFCC Chairman, Ibrahim Magu may not be re-nomination for confirmation as substantive chairman of EFCC as the Senate intend to invoke Order 131 of its rules to block him.
The Order, it was gathered, bars President Muhammadu Buhari from re-presenting Magu to the Senate for screening in spite of the argument in some quarters that the President can re-nominate him for the position for as many times as he likes under the EFCC Act.
But according to Chairman, Senate Committee on Federal Capital Territory (FCT), and Senator representing Kogi West, Dino Melaye, in a statement yesterday said that following the Senate’s rejection of the nomination of Magu as chairman of the EFCC on two different occasions, President Buhari could not validly re-nominate him again.
