In a quick rebuttal, EFCC dismissed Ndukwe’s claims, saying there was no truth whatsoever to them. The spokesman for EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren said:
“There is no truth whatsoever in the dubious and attention-seeking alarm that Fani-Kayode slumped and was revived by EFCC medical personnel. There was nothing like that as the said Fani-Kayode and Obanikoro sat together and enjoyed their jokes at the first round of checks of inmates in EFCC custody on Monday night."
