The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has invited and questioned former Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN), over allegations linked to terrorism financing and other related financial transactions.

Sources at the commission disclosed that the investigation also covers issues bordering on money laundering, suspicious bank accounts, and large financial movements connected to his time in office. The probe is part of EFCC’s broader efforts to strengthen accountability and combat financial crimes in the country.

Malami has, however, denied all allegations, describing them as false and politically motivated. He insisted that all his engagements while in office were lawful and professional, and that he has never been indicted by any security or regulatory agency.
