The
Chairman of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Mr. Ibrahim Magu,
has ordered investigation into the battery of a pregnant woman by one of its
operatives in Lagos. The lady, Blessing Nwokpa, alleged last week that she had
been abandoned after being impregnated by an EFCC officer, following her
refusal to abort her seven-month pregnancy.
Authorities
of the commission has now mandated the said official to pay N10,000 monthly to
his pregnant girlfriend as part of her upkeep.
It
will be recalled that the expectant mother became homeless after she was
allegedly beaten and thrown out by her lover from his Fadeyi Abode.
A
media house, reliably gathered that EFCC officials would be meeting
with the Legal Aid Council of Nigeria that is handling the matter, with a view
of settling the issue between its operative and his estranged girlfriend.
