The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), under Chairman Ola Olukoyede, has made historic strides in tackling economic crimes, recovering over ₦566 billion alongside $411 million and 1,502 properties within just two years. Speaking at a press conference in Abuja, Olukoyede highlighted record-breaking investigations, court cases, and convictions, signaling the EFCC’s growing effectiveness and commitment to fighting corruption.
From prosecuting high-profile figures including former governors and ministers to arresting hundreds involved in cyber and crypto fraud, the commission’s impact is far-reaching. Olukoyede also revealed the strategic use of recovered funds to support national programs like the Student Loan Scheme and collaborations with global law enforcement agencies, reinforcing Nigeria’s resolve to eradicate financial crimes and build a more transparent economy.
