A leaked government letter has cast a spotlight on the tensions between former EFCC boss, Mrs Farida Waziri and former President Olusegun Obasanjo recent face-off. Waziri wrote the letter to Obasanjo while in office as chairman of the EFCC begging him to compel President Goodluck Jonathan to reconfirm her for a second term as chairman of the EFCC. Unfortunately, President Goodluck Jonathan unexpectedly fired the head of Nigeria’s anti-corruption agency Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

Proving his point further, he said; “Go and look at the condition or the qualification; go and look at the type of interaction that anybody holding that job will have with a similar organisation elsewhere; did Waziri have that type. What connection did she have with FBI, what relationship did she have with Metropolitan Police in London. It’s not a picnic,” Obasanjo said.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has said the appointment of Mrs. Farida Waziri as the chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission slowed down the fight against corruption in the country.

 Obasanjo, in an exclusive interview he granted Zero Tolerance, a magazine published by the EFCC,  said Waziri was a wrong successor to Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, the pioneer chairman of the anti-graft agency.
