A former President of the Nigerian Bar Association, Olisa Agbakoba (SAN), has criticised the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission over what he described as an unwarranted media trial of the Kogi State Government concerning the fresh case against a nephew of the state governor and the previous N20bn bail-out controversy.

“It is not the duty of the EFCC to be chasing the Kogi State Government and threatening to storm the State House to seize documents or harass the Accountant-General of the state.
