As Nigerians join the rest of the world to celebrate Christmas, the Executive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,  EFCC,  Mr. Ola Olukoyede has expressed hopes of a greater and better Nigeria shorn of economic and financial crimes and other acts of corruption.   

  He stated this in Abuja on Tuesday,  December 24, 2024 while congratulating Christians as they mark the birth of Jesus Christ. The EFCC’s boss stressed that the light,   joy, hope, truth and liberty that Christ brought to the world are significant drives towards zero tolerance for corruption and reform-minded pursuits.

     “I deeply believe in the prospects of our nation for growth and development.  The Christmas season is an opportunity to activate these possibilities.  The values of light, joy, hope, truth and liberty that Christ brought to the whole world are significant pathways to integrity and zero tolerance for corruption.  We can make Nigeria greater if we embrace these values ”, he said.

    He expressed appreciation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for demonstrating stronger political will in favour of anti-graft efforts, pointing out that the achievements of the EFCC in the last one and half years  are a direct outcome of his courageous and inspirational leadership.  “Nigerians can see clearly that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is bent on tackling corrupt practices in our midst.  The strides of the EFCC could not have been possible without his active support and courage.  We appreciate this at all times”, he said

    Continuing,  Olukoyede extended his appreciation to the Judiciary, stressing that the “professionalism,  commitment,  integrity and courage of our Justices and Judges are greatly building strength for the EFCC in its anti-corruption works. He charged the judiciary to continue on its path of redemption and equity.  Additionally, he applauded the media, civil society groups and other critical stakeholders for their fervency and robust engagement with the Commission.  He assured that, with their collaboration,  greater strides would be made in the coming year

 

 Lastly, the anti-graft czar wishes Nigerians a merry Christmas and fruitful 2025.
