The EFCC has declared that it will not tolerate any hindrance of its operations. Professor Odinkalu questioned the EFCC’s choice to not specifically address the statement to the current governor of Kogi State and his immediate predecessor, who are blood relatives, on Twitter.

He wrote, “Another piece of waste from a #drainpipe entity: @officialEFCC lacks the gumption or authority to name & address this release to the sitting governor of Kogi State & his immediate predecessor – a blood relation. Instead, it reserves its institutional muscles for irrelevance.”

The professor’s tweet highlights his dissatisfaction with the EFCC’s failure to target specific individuals allegedly obstructing the commission’s operations.

He underlined the need for the EFCC to address such matters directly with those involved, rather than issuing generalized statements.

Professor Odinkalu’s criticism underlines the ongoing debate surrounding the EFCC’s effectiveness and its handling of high-profile cases. CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
