The EFCC seized former

interview with Al Jazeerah. Also displayed were jewelries and monies reportedly
recovered from corrupt government officials.
Speaking during an interview, the EFCC Chairman, Ibrahim
Magu said
"We have been able to take on a lot of big shots that
were hitherto were untouchable in the three arms of the military, political
class. We have recorded 164 convictions in just one year". He denied
claims that the fight against corruption was politically motivated. "No,
not my EFCC, not the EFCC of today. We are not politicized. If there is an
allegation against anybody, we will go after them"
