Gunmen Storm Magu’s House In Fresh Attack, Kill Policeman

Armed men, on Tuesday night stormed a residence of the acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, killing a policeman.

The unoccupied house is located within a farm owned by Mr. Magu in Karshi, a suburb of Abuja.

According to Premium Times, the house was stormed by unidentified attackers at about 10 p.m. on Tuesday.

The armed men tied a police officer and another civilian working on the property before beating them to pulp.

“The policeman died from the beating,” a source close to the EFCC boss’s family disclosed.

Recall that the farmstead was placed under police security a few months ago following earlier attack on it.

Recall also that the EFCC office in Abuja was also attacked shortly after the attack on the farmstead.

“That was what warranted additional security around Mr. Magu and his family,” the source explained.

As at the time of publishing this report, Mr. Magu and EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, were yet to react to the incident.
