' I am ready to swear an affidavit on the matter. Mr Salami is someone that is old enough to be my father, so I would not say something he did not say.'

" I am ready to swear an affidavit on the matter. Mr Salami is someone that is old enough to be my father, so I would not say something he did not say."One of the lawyers of the suspended acting EFCC chairman, Ibrahim Magu, has insisted that Justice Ayo Salami said he regretted accepting to head the presidential panel probing Mr Magu.

Following the report, Mr Salami issued a rare statement on Tuesday in which he described the claims by the two lawyers as false. Mr Salami added that “I have never appointed any of the two lawyers or any other person to speak on my behalf as I can express myself without recourse to the lawyers of the persons we are probing. As an eminent jurist, who retired as the President of the Court of Appeal,

“I want to point out that such wild claims against me and the Commission are not strange to me, given the manner in which the lawyers to Magu have been carrying on in the conduct of their client’s case before the Commission. Planting such lies in the media about proceedings at the panel has been their pastime. They believe that it is by engaging in such media propaganda against the Commission that their client can be easily absolved of the various allegations that have been brought against him.
