The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC has dissociated itself from what it calls phantom report circulating in sections of the media claiming it has released a full list of former State Governors being investigated for alleged corruption.
The Commission which made this known in a statement signed by its Head Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale describes the news as false and mischievous explaining that the anti-graft agency neither issued the said list nor entertained discussions on investigation of former State Governors with any News medium.
The statement said the so-called list is a disingenuous fabrication designed to achieve motives known only to its authors. It therefore calls on the public to ignore the report as it is false and misleading,.
EFCC also advises the media to endeavour to crosscheck facts pertaining to matters under investigation with the Commission to avoid misleading the public with false and inaccurate reports.
