Abubakar Malami, the former Attorney-General of the Federation, has come under fire from former National Human Rights Commission chairman Chidi Odinkalu for his recent allegations that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission is acting politically in its interactions with him.

Odinkalu called Malami a “grubby, vexatiously political Attorney-General” while he was in office in a post on X on Sunday.

He added that if Malami thinks that the EFCC is politicised, he should remember that “they’re following what he taught them.”

“Someone should tell Abubakar Malami to please sit this out. He was a grubby, vexatiously political Attorney-General,” Odinkalu wrote.

“If he’s now complaining that EFCC is political, they should tell him that they’re following what he taught them. They have no need to deny it.”

Odinkalu’s remarks followed Malami’s accusation that the EFCC had revoked his bail due to his attendance at a political gathering in Kebbi State.

Nevertheless, the EFCC deemed Malami’s assertions “untenable” and declared that he had not fulfilled the five requirements associated with his interim bail.

The commission emphasized that it functions in an apolitical manner and advised Malami to concentrate on meeting his bail obligations rather than bringing up what it referred to as “bogus claims.”

Malami has maintained that he did not violate any bail requirements, while being under investigation for alleged money laundering, abuse of office, and financing terrorism.
