- Officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) yesterday in Abuja, quizzed former Comptroller-General (CG) of Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Mr. David Parradang, for hours.
- The former NIS boss arrived at the complex at about 10a.m., and was immediately ushered into the interrogation room, where he answered questions on last year’s botched recruitment, which turned tragic. The source, who spoke in confidence, said Parradang was still being grilled as at 5p.m., when he left office.
- The Head of Media and Publicity of the EFCC, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, could not be reached for comment.
- President Muhammadu Buhari had suspended Parradang on August 21, and directed his deputy, Mr. Martin Abeshi, to act in his stead. Parradang made spirited efforts to save his job with the Governor of his home state, Plateau, Mr. Simon Lalong, taking him to beg Buhari.
