The statement read, “We are happy to commend the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for its recent vigour in carrying out its anti-corruption mandate. The recent efforts will not only pave way for more collaborations and supports but will also enhance the image of the Commission.

“We again ask the former governor of Kogi, Yahaya Bello, to submit himself to the Commission and keep his date at the law court. The Commission should also focus on the oil and other sectors as it is doing on the States.”

The Group restated its promise to stand behind the efforts of Federal and state governments, the EFCC, the ICPC, the NFIU, all security agencies and anti-corruption agencies and units, in the assignment of bringing to birth a new and prosperous Nigeria.
