Makurdi: EFCC rolls out drum in Benue to mark African Union Anti-Corruption Day, 2019 (Photos)

Acting Chairman of the EFCC, Ibrahim Magu in Benue State, rolled out the drums to mark this year’s African Union Anti Corruption Day.

Magu who was represented by the Makurdi Zonal Head of Operations, EFCC, Johnson Ayo Babalola, urged all Nigerians to join hands with the EFCC to fight against corruption, economic crimes and to recover Nigerian’s stolen wealth.

He pointed out that the anti-corruption road walk was to sensitize Nigerians on the fact that everyone has a role to play in the anti-corruption crusade.

“What we are doing is to sensitize the people of Nigeria and people of Benue State in particular that everybody has to key into the anti-corruption crusade.

That the EFCC cannot do it alone, and that it depends on people of Nigeria to support the EFCC to make sure that our efforts are complemented,” noting that Nigerians need to pass the message across to all that corruption does not pay and that the citizens have a right to expose the corrupt.
