The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, dismissed twenty seven (27) officers from its workforce in 2024 in its quest to enforce integrity and rid its fold of fraudulent elements,
The officers were dismissed for various offences bordering on fraudulent activities and misconduct. Their dismissal, FOLLOWING THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE STAFF Disciplinary Committee of the EFCC, was ratified by the Executive Chairman, Mr. Ola Olukoyede.
Olukoyede reiterated the commitment of the Commission to zero tolerance for corruption, warning that no officer is immune to disciplinary measures.
He said, every modicum of allegation against any staff of the Commission would always be investigated, including a trending $400,000 claim of a yet-to-be-identified supposed staff of the EFCC against a Sectional Head.
He added that the core values of the Commission are sacrosanct and would always be held in optimal regard at all times.
