A former head of state, General Abdulsalami Abubakar, has said his house has never been searched by the economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) or any security agency.
Apparently reacting to reports that the EFCC searched his house in Minna, Niger State, Abubakar, through his military assistant, Captain J. Mfon (retd), said the closest to such was in 2017 when some EFCC operatives from Kano mistook his house for one which was to be searched in Tunga.
General Abdulsalami said when the officers arrived at the house, he contacted Magu who said he was unaware of the operation and the officers immediately left, realising that they were at a wrong place.
Abdulsalami added that consequently, the officers left without conducting any search on his house.
The statement added that to put the record straight, the house of the former head of state has never been searched by officials of either the EFCC or any other security agency.
