Where is your court order, – Malami Queries EFCC operatives who visited his house

Former Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, was captured in a tense exchange with operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, during an early morning raid at his residence in Abuja.

In a video cited online, Malami is seen questioning the legitimacy of the operatives’ presence, repeatedly demanding to see a valid court order authorizing their actions.

“Where is your court order?” he asked firmly. Do you want to disgrace me?”

The EFCC officials reportedly told him they had the right to mark the property, claiming it was under investigation.

However, Malami pushed back, arguing that any such order permitting their actions had already expired.

“You said the property is under probation, is it still under probation when the order has elapsed?” he queried.

“You were at my other house earlier this morning, and now you are here again. Why?”

He further challenged the operatives to present clear legal backing for their actions.

“The order you are referring to is not specific. It does not give you clear directives to come and mark my property,” Malami said.

“This matter is already pending in court. Show me where it is stated that you have the authority to be here.”

SOCIETY REPORTERS had reported that Operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) on Monday stormed a house belonging to former Attorney-General Abubakar Malami in Abuja, forcing those present to leave.

The incident occurred shortly after former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar visited the Maitama residence. He reportedly spent about an hour there before leaving.
