According to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), if all parties involved in the anti-graft corridor work together, it will be possible to stem the nation’s rising corruption.
In his Eid-El-Kabir address, Ola Olukoyede, the head of the Commission, made this declaration.
He emphasised that in order to eradicate the threat, renewed efforts must be made to combat all types of financial and economic crimes.
“It is clear that we can achieve unity of purpose, love, peace, and advancement for a Nigeria free from corruption and shady tactics.
“Let’s continue to build.” Let’s continue to combat any obstacles to our advancement. Together, let’s continue to combat financial and economic crimes, he declared.
