On October 12, 2024, 16 states in Nigeria come out to criticize the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over the lingering fraud cases worth N776 billion. The states are not happy with how the EFCC is handling these cases.
The EFCC had reopened these fraud cases in January 2024, but the states feel that not much progress has been made. This criticism comes at a time when there is growing public concern about corruption and the effectiveness of anti-graft agencies in Nigeria.
The fraud cases involve various individuals and entities, and the states are calling for more transparency and action from the EFCC. The public is also watching closely to see how these cases will be resolved.
This development highlights the ongoing struggle against corruption in Nigeria and the need for stronger accountability and justice in such high-profile cases.
