However, in a statement issued on Wednesday, the retired police chief said he was not aware of such appointment.
He described the story as an unnecessary distraction by mischief-makers.
The statement read, “Good morning, everyone. I have been inundated with so many calls and messages between yesterday and today on a purported ‘EFCC Appointment’. I just want to use this opportunity to debunk this information and say it’s totally untrue.
“This information must have emanated from mischief-makers and should be totally disregarded.”
