Abdulrasheed Bawa, the head of the EFCC, has claimed he has filed an appeal against the court’s decision ordering his detention at Kuje jail.

Speaking with Journalists in Abuja, Bawa said he would allow the natural course of the law to take its effect, having filed an appeal against the remand verdict.

We have appealed against it already so we will allow the natural course of the law to take its effect,” he said.

Blueprint had earlier reported that a High Court sitting in Abuja convicted the Chairman of the anti-graft agency, for contempt of court.

The conviction was in relation to the failure of EFCC to comply with a court order, dated November 21, 2018, directing it to return a Range Rover and the sum of N40 million to an applicant in a suit.
