We’ll Break the ‘Corr¥ption Siege’ — EFCC Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, Assures Nigerians as He Calls for the Creation of an Anti-Corr¥ption Court The Economic and Financial Cr+mes Commission (EFCC) has reiterated its resolve to dismantle what it called the “corr¥ption siege” in Nigeria, pledging to hold its personnel to the highest standards of integrity. Chairman of the Commission, Ola Olukoyede, gave the charge on Friday at the Passing Out Parade of 404 cadets at the Nigeria Police Mobile Force Training College, Ende Hills, Akwanga, Nasarawa State. The graduating officers comprised 294 detective superintendents and 110 detective inspectors. Olukoyede stressed that the Commission’s strength lies in building a disciplined and professional workforce capable of handling complex investigations and prosecutions. “The Commission has shown that it is capable of tackling any economic and financial cr+me. This is owing to the development of effective manpower that can weather the storms of investigations and prosecution. Fresh officers must strive to surpass existing records. We are eager to break the siege of graft in our land, and with determination, we will surely sail through,” he said. He also warned that stiff penalties await any officer found compromising the EFCC’s mission. Reviewing the parade, Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State congratulated the cadets for their resilience and urged the establishment of special courts dedicated to handling corruption cases. According to him, such a step would eliminate bottlenecks and accelerate trials. “I congratulate all of you for demonstrating readiness to serve Nigeria. The EFCC has recorded significant successes, but to do more, I urge the National Assembly to strengthen the Commission and consider creating a special anti-corr¥ption court,” Sule said.
