Magu made the call in Kaduna at the commissioning of the Zonal Office of the EFCC on Thursday.
The EFCC boss urged the judiciary to step up its game in the fight against corruption adding that corrupt persons should be ostracised in order to rid the country of the monster.
He said, “We want to call for the establishment of a prison in Sambisa forest to keep away corrupt people from our midst. In this case, the judiciary has direct influence to help in the fight against corruption.
“But concerted efforts are being made by some big Nigerians to neutralise the fight against corruption. We must change the narrative by fighting back those that do not want the fight to succeed.
“I remain committed to the fight against corruption, and I commend the Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai for encouraging EFCC to establish a zonal office in Kaduna. “We must, therefore, join hands together to kill corruption, before corruption kills us.
