The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Wednesday promised to ensure credible conduct of this month’s elections.
The EFCC Chairman, Abdulrasheed Bawa, gave the assurance at an interfaith peace summit organized by the Nigerian Television Authority’s Abrahamic Mission in collaboration with the Al-habibiyah organization in Abuja.
Bawa, who was represented at the event by the Assistant Director of Media and Publicity in the EFCC, Dele Oyewale, declared the commission’s readiness to check vote-buying in the elections.
He said: “As an anti-corruption agency, the EFCC is equipped to ensure that every necessary process, rule, and regulation of the elections are complied with. For us to ensure peace, we must ensure that there is no manipulation, there is nothing that will trigger any form of violence. To this end, any form of electoral irregularity, malpractice, or compromise of the electoral process would be tackled.
