Arewa groups have called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to consider immediate and total overhaul of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) after
“As we except thorough investigations to expose and punish the extent of compromise and complicity of Bawa, it is equally expected that his major accomplices such as his Chief of Staff, Hadiza Ibrahim Gamawa, be suspended as well and subjected to investigation and subsequent prosecution.
“While we once again hail the government action against corrupt practices and officers with corrupt tendencies, we pray that the likes of Bawa shall never again be entrusted with positions of responsibility only to end up letting down the youth constituency. “Meanwhile, we have abiding faith, that in view of his upbringing and eminent legal background, the acting chairman of the EFCC, Abdulkarim Chukkol, cannot afford to disappoint the nation and would pursue the war against corruption with decency and decorum in accordance with the rule of law” Yerima stated.On its part, the Arewa Civil Society Organisations called for investigation and prosecution of all the former chairman’s allies who also engaged in corrupt practices.
