Abdu, a former Operative of the Commission had filed a suit against the EFCC before Justice Rakiya B. Haastrup of the National Industrial Court questioning the legality and process of his termination, praying that he be reabsorbed and given his position.
The EFCC had terminated his appointment for engaging in the “crime of attempting to extort money, indiscipline, falsehood and prevarication”. But he argues that he was “incriminated”. He is also accusing the Appointments Promotions and Disciplinary, APDC, of the Commission for not giving him a fair hearing, having thrown out his defence “in order to find him culpable to warrant a termination”.
