Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has denied reports claiming he filed a lawsuit against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over an alleged plan to arrest and prosecute him after his tenure
The governor addressed the claims in a statement released by the state Attorney General and Commissioner of Justice, Lawal Pedro, on Tuesday.
The statement read: “Our attention has been drawn to the news circulating in a section of the media, titled ‘Sanwo-Olu Sues EFCC Over Alleged Plan to Arrest, Prosecute Him After Tenure.’ Mr. Sanwo-Olu did not sue the EFCC in any court, as he has no reason to do so.”
The statement emphasized that Sanwo-Olu, who still has nearly three years left in office and enjoys immunity, has not been investigated or contacted by the EFCC regarding any allegations.
The Attorney General clarified that the governor has remained committed to integrity, prudent resource management, and service delivery in Lagos State, and is focused on improving the lives of Lagosians.
