A former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Nuhu Ribadu has said that the commission under Mr. Ibrahim Magu has made more recoveries than ever in the history of the nation.
Ribadu, who made the submissions in an interaction with reporters at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja after the inaugural of lecture THE INTERVIEW magazine, asked all Nigerians to be involved in the anti-graft campaign.
He said: “I will talk of EFCC that I know. I will assure you that the leadership of the EFCC today is one that has the same spirit and belief in the vision of the EFCC right from the foundation and time the EFCC was established.
“It is a leadership that carries itself with integrity, a leadership that is strong, a leadership that is honest and a leadership that works with a lot of courage. You can see it in war that is going on.
“Today, more than ever before, in our history we have more cases that are being taken. We have more in terms of recoveries taking place, more than any time ever.
“You can simply say that maybe, there is no one single anti- corruption organization in the world today that is doing the work that the EFCC is doing. So that must be acknowledged and that must be understood.
“In short, I can tell you that I think that we are getting back on track and we are doing fairly well. It can only get better as we continue to go along that direction.”
