- Says no hiding place, we’ll get you anywhere, anytime
- Commissions EFCC’s new radio station, 97.3FM.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has issued a stern warning to fraudsters, declaring that it is ‘on the hunt’ for them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The agency’s Executive Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, made this vow at the commissioning of the EFCC’s new radio station, 97.3FM, in Abuja on Thursday.
Olukoyede stressed that the EFCC will leave no stone unturned in its quest to track down and bring to justice all those involved in corrupt practices.
He warned that the agency will not relent in its efforts to combat corruption, and is now more determined than ever to rid the country of the scourge of corruption.
“We are getting stronger for the fight, and there will be no hiding place for fraudsters as EFCC will get them anywhere, anytime,” he declared.
The EFCC chairman’s warning came on the heels of the agency’s recent successes in prosecuting high-profile suspects and recovering billions of naira in looted funds.
The commission’s new radio station is part of the EFCC’s strategy to engage with the public and mobilize support for its activities.
The station will provide a platform for the EFCC to share information, educate the public on the dangers of corruption, and receive feedback from Nigerians on its activities.
The EFCC chairman explained that the station will offer the Commission a platform for discussions, marketplace of ideas, and sounding board of knowing the pulse of the nation concerning its work.
The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, commended the EFCC for its efforts in combating corruption and urged the agency to continue its good work.
The minister also charged the management and staff of the new radio station to operate in line with the principles and ethics of broadcasting and journalism.
With its new radio station and renewed determination, the EFCC is poised to take the fight against corruption to the next level, and fraudsters are warned to beware.
