Expose corrupt practices at your places of primary assignment, EFCC tell Corps Members

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has charged corps members across the country to embrace the whistle blowing policy of the government and expose corrupt practices in their places of primary assignment.

The Kano Zonal Assistant Commander of the EFCC, ACE Farouq Dogondaj, gave the charge in Dutse, Jigawa State while addressing members of the EFCC/ Community Development Service group of the NYSC.

According to him, the task of moving the nation forward, could only be successful, when corps members join forces with other interest groups to expose cases of economic and financial crimes in their environments.

Dogondaji, ably represented by the Head of Public Affairs of the Command, Idris Isiyaku, enjoined corps members to see themselves as critical stakeholders in the fight against economic crimes and shun all internet-related offences.

In his words, “The EFCC is calling on you to take advantage of the whistle blower policy of the government, by reporting any questionable practice wherever you find yourself. Being a mere spectator and lamenting that things are not done rightly, will not help the country. You must wake up and take ownership of the fight against corruption in order to salvage the nation from the yoke of stagnation.”

“The fight against corruption cannot be left in the hands of law enforcement agencies alone, all stakeholders must key into the crusade and fight it to the barest minimum.”

“The EFCC has realized that, youths who are regarded as leaders of tomorrow, are the ones engaged in cyber fraud. This should no longer continue.”
