Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Ola Olukoyede, has revealed that some investigators of the commission take bribes and compromise the fight against corruption.
In his New Year address to the staff of the EFCC, Olukoyede said he would not hesitate to punish any officer who tarnishes the image of the EFCC.
“At this point, I need to strongly reiterate the issue of discipline, integrity and sense of responsibility in the way we do our work. Public opinions about the conduct of some of our investigators are adverse.
“The craze and quest for gratification, bribes and other compromises by some of our investigators are becoming too embarrassing and this must not continue.
