Nigerians have received a warning from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, or EFCC, to refrain from corrupt activities in 2025 and to hold fast to their anti-corruption stance.
The nation’s future and development, according to commission head Ola Olukoyede, who issued this warning on Tuesday, depend on everyone working together to fight financial and economic crimes.
The head of the EFCC emphasized in his New Year’s address to the populace that combating corruption was essential to raising everyone’s standard of living in Nigeria and developing the country’s economy.
In the New Year, the chair of the anti-graft agency encouraged people to reaffirm their commitment to the principles of openness, responsibility, and honesty.
Our support for anti-corruption activities can help our country achieve any advancement and development we desire.
We have new chances in the new year to reaffirm our commitment to the principles of openness, responsibility, and integrity.
“Our commitment to honesty and responsible behavior is the only thing that can propel the economy to its highest levels and improve our lives,” he stated.

Another year of tearing down corruption’s buildings will be 2025. We are fully committed and have a clear focus,” he continued.
