BREAKING: EFCC Chairman Slumps In Aso Rock

Abdulrasheed Bawa, the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), was hurried out of the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Thursday after slumping during a presentation.

iexclusive News Nigeria reports that Bawa abruptly stopped speaking during his goodwill message at the National Identity Day ceremony.

When the incident occurred, he was speaking about a man the commission detained in Ibadan, Oyo state, with 116 SIM cards.

“Please, excuse me, I can’t continue,” Bawa said as he paused and covered his face with his right palm.

Dr. Isa Ali Pantami, Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, and other top officials at the occasion helped him to his seat, but when the anti-graft czar fell in his seat, he was hustled out of the seat of power.

The Bawa’s status was later confirmed to be stable by the Master of Ceremony (MC).

“I am pleased to inform you that the Chairman of the EFCC is now stable,” he stated.

However, as at the time of reporting this story, the chairman and others who rushed him out had yet to return to the hall.
