Michael Aondoakaa, an ex-attorney-general of the federation , says former President Muhammadu Buhari had tried to settle the criminal case against Murtala Nyako, a former Adamawa governor, out of court.

Aondoakaa said Buhari had instructed Abubakar Malami, immediate past AGF, to liaise with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to have the charges dropped.
