The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN), has debunked a media report that he has resigned from office.
Malami made the clarification in Abuja on Thursday while delivering a keynote address at a conference organised by the National Association of Judiciary Correspondents.
He called for the sanctioning of media practitioners found to be doing the bidding of mischievous politicians while calling on journalists to be factual in their reportage.

“It is high time that we enhance media literacy for Nigerians to appreciate fact-checking and verification of information.
“Many who relied on some unprofessional information disseminators will be taken aback that the Malami that was claimed to have resigned as Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice was still seen in office discharging his functions including attending the Federal Executive Council meeting yesterday, granting interviews to journalists and still today declaring this conference open as the Attorney General of the Federation.
“There is naturally an end to everything. My tenure in office has not yet ended. I pray for a glorious end,” Malami said.
