Ibrahim Magu

A former acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Magu, will today retire from the Nigeria Police Force after clocking the mandatory retirement age of 60 years.

This is coming amid the controversy on his elevation to the level of Assistant Inspector-General of Police (AIG) from the current level – Commissioner of Police.

The Police Service Commission Standing Committee had recommended him for promotion, but some officials in Attorney-General’s Office had said he could not be elevated until he was cleared.
