It explained that its decision to search the head office of Dangote Group was because the company was not forthcoming with the documents it was requested to provide.
The agency said the visit was justified because its operatives were “able to get the vital documents they wanted.”
It said it would not join issues with the company but asked Nigerians to wait for the outcome of the investigation.
But Dangote Group in a statement, said no accusations of wrongdoing have been made against any company within its group.
It said the visit of the EFCC to its office was “designed to cause us unwarranted embarrassment.”
