Former Attorney General of the Federation (AGF), Abubakar Malami, reportedly confronted operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission during an attempted raid on his residence, questioning their authority and demanding legal documentation.
Eyewitness accounts and social media reports indicate that Malami asked, “Where is your court order… Do you want to disgrace me?”, asserting his right to due process as the operatives allegedly attempted to enter his property.
The incident has sparked widespread commentary online, with critics highlighting the perceived contrast between Malami’s past conduct in office under former President Muhammadu Buhari and his current confrontation with anti-corruption authorities. Some observers noted that Malami had previously wielded significant power and influence, describing him as carrying himself “like a minigod” during his tenure.
Public reactions have underscored debates around accountability, the independence of anti-graft agencies, and the limits of political influence once officials leave office.
As of now, the EFCC has not issued an official statement regarding the alleged raid or Malami’s response, while analysts continue to monitor the developments for potential legal and political implications.
