Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) chair Mrs. Farida Waziri spoke yesterday of her battle to prosecute Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stalwart Bode George.
She said she received threats and blackmail over the trial of the former chairman of the Nigeria Ports Authority (NPA) who got a two-year jail term alongside five others. Also convicted by Justice Olubunmi Oyewole of a Lagos High Court are former NPA chief Aminu Dabo, O. Adeboye, Abdullahi Tafida, Zanna Maiderribe and Sule Aliyu.
