The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has dismissed 27 officers from its workforce in 2024 for offences related to fraudulent activities and misconduct.

The dismissal based on the recommendations of the EFCC Staff Disciplinary Committee, was ratified by the Executive Chairman, Ola Olukoyede.

The commission announced the dismissals in a statement signed by Dele Oyewale, Head of Media and Publicity, on Monday, January 6.

The officers were dismissed for various offences bordering on fraudulent activities and misconduct.

“Every modicum of allegation against any staff of the Commission would always be investigated, including a trending $400,000 claim of a yet-to-be-identified supposed staff of the EFCC against a Sectional Head. The core values of the Commission are sacrosanct and would always be held in optimal regard at all times,” the statement partly read

The anti-graft agency also alerted the public to the sinister activities of impersonators and blackmailers using the name of its chairman to extort money from high-profile suspects.

“Two members of an alleged syndicate, Ojobo Joshua and Aliyu Hashim were recently arraigned before Justice Jude Onwuebuzie of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, High Court, Abuja for allegedly contacting a former Managing Director of the Nigerian Ports Authority, Mr. Mohammed Bello-Kaka and demanding $1million from him for “Olukoyede to give him soft landing” on a non-existing investigation. Such characters are still on the loose seeking victims.

Olukoyede remains a man of integrity that cannot be swayed by monetary influences. The public is enjoined to always report such disreputable elements to the Commission,” the commission stated
