Corruption: EFCC boss Olukoyede urges Nigerians to embrace whistle blowing

The Chairman of the EFCC, Mr. Ola Olukoyede has urged Nigerians to show commitment to the fight against corruption by fully embracing the demands of the whistle blowing policy of the government.

Speaking at an event in Abuja on Thursday, July 11, 2024 the EFCC boss said: “Aside terrorism, corruption ranks as the next deadliest affliction of humanity in every region of the world. In view of the danger and threat to our existence which corruption represents, it is imperative that individuals, communities, corporate bodies and indeed the whole world join hands together to tackle it frontally.

One way of doing this is through the whistle-blowing initiative. We cannot win the war against corruption through lip service, emotional outburst or mere mob campaigns. There is need for commitment, passion, consistence and credibility of intelligence. Every whistle blown must point towards truth and evidential proofs.
