Nasiru Ali Threatens to Sue EFCC


Following his recent parade by the EFCC with another 9 suspected internet fraudsters, Abuja based music producer and photographer, Mr Nasiru Ali also known as “Kozzographa”, has threatened to sue the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

The EFCC disclosed that its personnel raided the suspect’s residence in Abuja following a tip-off by an anonymous source, adding that suspects would be charged to court as soon as investigations were concluded.

However, Ali in a petition filed on May 31 to the EFCC Acting Chairman, Ibrahim Magu, demanded a compensation of N100 million and an unreserved apology for libel and unlawful arrest.

The musician, through his lawyer, Mr Pelumi Olajengbensi, said that he would drag the EFCC to court for refusing to retract the negative publications about him after a seven-day ultimatum which he has given. He added that the defamation has caused him damages a minimum of five million naira, being a contract he lost with United Global Resolve for Peace (UNGREP).
