The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Abdulrasheed Bawa, on Thursday slumped at a programme at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The chairman, who was speaking on the importance of digital identification in commemoration of the National Identity Day, remembered the death of a staff of the commission and suddenly became emotional.
Unable to continue his speech, Bawa walked off and sat in his chair and slumped.
Accompanied by the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Mr Isa Pantami, the EFCC boss was immediately rushed out for medical attention.
Shortly after, the Chairman returned to the hall and said he was now in a stable condition.
The event continued thereafter.
