The Chairman senate committee on media, Senator Dino Melaye on Saturday, claimed that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is planning to raise false allegations against him. The very outspoken senator who is presently in Morocco, using his page on social media site Twitter, said he had been alerted that the EFCC had begun a forensic probe of all his accounts.

The Kogi-born lawmaker however stated that he was prepared for the anti-graft agency. The senator thereafter proceeded to share pictures from Casablanca in Morocco where he is attending the Crans Montana Forum on Africa and South Cooperation alongside Senate President Bukola Saraki.

Melaye is one of the most vocal lawmakers against the confirmation of the acting chairman of the EFCC, Ibrahim Magu as the head of the agency following his second nomination by President Muhammadu Buhari.

There have also been insinuations that he in collaboration with another senator financially induced their colleagues to ensure Magu’s nomination was rejected a second time by the upper chamber of the National Assembly.
