The Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN), said he has not been directed by President Muhammadu Buhari to investigate the N15 billion recovered by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in Lagos.
Speaking during a telephone chat yesterday, the AGF said the security agencies involved were directly answerable to the president.
According to the minister, nobody can pre-empt Mr President, adding that it was still premature.
The recovered money found in various currencies is being claimed by the National Intelligence Agency (NIA).
