A former Lagos Commissioner of Police AIG Hakeem Odumosu has debunked news reports that he has been appointed as chairman of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The reports circulated online on Tuesday that President Bola Tinubu has approved the appointment of Odumosu as the acting Chairman of EFCC.
But in a statement, Odumosu, who retired as an Assistant Inspector-General of Police, dismissed the media reports, saying he was not aware of such an appointment.
Odumosu described the circulation of the fake appointment as an unnecessary distraction by mischief makers.
He said: “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, saying he wanted to be left alone to enjoy his retirement in peace, devoid of distractive rumours.
“This information must have emanated from Mischief Makers and should be totally disregarded.”
Recall that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu had, recently sacked the chairman, EFCC, Abdulrasheed Bawa, and replaced him with Abdulkarim Chukkol.(agency)/SHARE THIS
