These are the ones that reinforce negative societal norms and values," the former minister said. Jackson Ude, the publisher of Point Blank News posted the video of Diezani speaking at the event.

Magu, through his counsel, Wahab Shittu, in a letter dated Tuesday, August 11, decried the investigative committee’s interpretation of its role as a Judicial Commission of Enquiry and faulted its manner of proceedings. The suspended EFCC boss in his letter argued that despite the powers of the inquiry to exclude members of the public, it is not for the entirety of the proceedings. Shittu speaking to Premium Times in a phone interview on Wednesday, August 12, said the restriction of the public to the proceedings should be on a few occasions. However, Magu's lawyer noted they have not allowed members of the public, adding that his client’s constitutional right to a fair hearing is being violated by the panel.
