The Federal Government has hailed the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for its outstanding transformation since its inception. FG recently praised the agency’s growth into a leading anti-corruption institution.
The Special Adviser to the President on Policy and Coordination and Head of the Central Results Delivery Coordination Unit, Hadiza Bala Usman, hailed the commission when she led a delegation to present the Performance Charter of the Commission to the EFCC Executive Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, at the agency’s headquarters in Abuja.
Revealing that no organisation in Nigeria has shown the same level of growth as the commission since the year 2000, she said that EFCC should be proud of its trajectory since it was established.
Hadiza hailed officials for doing everything possible to end corruption in Nigeria, stressing that the commission keeps improving as the years roll by.
“You should all be proud of yourselves, seeing your trajectory.
Some of us have been observing the EFCC journey for a long time, and I just want to say that collectively your staff and the organisation should be very proud of what has been built in these years.
Every day you visit EFCC, you see how it has improved. I’m not sure there’s any organisation that has grown the way the EFCC has grown from 2000 to date,” she said.
FG further noted that the visit formed part of the Presidency’s efforts to strengthen performance monitoring and accountability across government institutions.
Hadiza concluded by saying that the final phase of the process would involve a validation session with EFCC staff to review and refine the document before full implementation.
“They provided us with support in terms of the technical content of what we are presenting here to you.
That’s why they are part of this team, and they will contribute towards our submission.
Mr Chairman, sir, we have concluded the assignment. We have done the initial draft of the Performance Charter.
The Charter aims to strengthen transparency, accountability, and informed decision-making,” she added.
