It&#8217;s either Lawal Daura is right and EFCC boss Ibrahim Magu is a corrupt man, or Daura is corruptly accusing Magu of corruption in order to jeopardize the corruption war. Or both of them are corrupt.<\/p>\n<p>So as more Nigerians slowly become wailers, I throw this question to the reader: A., B., or C?<\/p>\n<p>While we painfully entertain ourselves with the dogfight going on among Buhari&#8217;s agency bosses, one can draw certain conclusions without pretending to know more than is in public domain.<\/p>\n<p>One. Magu lives in opulence. He lives in a N20 million a year upscale mansion in Maitama. That&#8217;s about $66,000 on rent alone,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/metrowatchonline.com\/revealed-fraud-suspect-commodore-umar-paid-n40m-ex-ministers-family-2-year-rent-efcc-spends-n43m-furnishing\/\" target=\"_blank\">furnishing<\/a>\u00a0not included. Is this corruption? I guess it depends. Two. Magu did not investigate his good friend\u00a0Air\u00a0<em>Commodore<\/em>\u00a0Mohammed Umar for corruption till the DSS decided to. Three. Magu keeps federal documents in his home, which is risky and illegal. All these issues are in the DSS report and have been confirmed by\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.premiumtimesng.com\/news\/headlines\/218293-fact-check-senate-confirmation-how-sss-lied-against-efcc-boss-magu.html\" target=\"_blank\">PremiumTimes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For those of us who have not focused on Magu, and refuse to quiz why numerous known corrupt cabal rogues remain free of EFCC jaws while the Sarakis including his wife and select PDP men get the finger from the department; we witnessed\u00a0one story that was clearly a misuse and abuse of power: the arrest and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsjs.com\/url.php?p=http:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/world-africa-37024062\" target=\"_blank\">detention of blogger<\/a>\u00a0Abu SidiqU for non economic and financial crimes.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to SSS boss Daura, it is scary to imagine or confirm as it may be that he may be so corrupt and vindictive to even top Buhari appointees.\u00a0While at least half appears true, if just\u00a0half of the case against Magu is untrue then a Security department boss who can do so to a known public agency boss can do unthinkable things to ruling party opponents and people like Nnamdi Kanu, Dasuki, Zakzaky and all other known and unknown Toms, Dicks and Harrys.<\/p>\n<p>A corrupt public official is a grave danger not to himself but to the entire nation. And being appointees and not elected officials like the despised Senate, every extra day corrupt appointees remain in power, Buhari is party to the corruption and is corrupt.
