Witnesses from sgf office frustrating babachir lawals case efcc
It appears that you're referring to the ongoing corruption case involving Babachir Lawal, a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
From what I've gathered, the EFCC has been investigating Lawal over allegations of misappropriation of funds meant for the rehabilitation of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in the North-East region. The investigation was sparked by a petition filed by a civil society organization, the Premium Times.
As part of the investigation, the EFCC has been calling witnesses to testify against Lawal. However, it seems that some of these witnesses from the SGF office have been frustrating the case by refusing to cooperate or providing conflicting information.
According to reports, some of the witnesses have been claiming that they were not involved in the procurement process for the IDP projects, despite evidence to the contrary. Others have been accused of tampering with documents or destroying evidence.
The EFCC has been trying to get to the bottom of the matter, but the lack of cooperation from these witnesses has been hindering the progress of the investigation. The commission has also been facing challenges in getting access to relevant documents and records from the SGF office.
It's worth noting that Lawal has denied any wrongdoing and has claimed that the allegations against him are politically motivated. He has also accused the EFCC of bias and has threatened to take legal action against the commission.
The case is ongoing, and it remains to be seen how it will ultimately play out. However, the lack of cooperation from the witnesses from the SGF office has certainly added a layer of complexity to the investigation.
