The Zonal Commander, Oshodi Johnson while presenting the cheques, reiterated the fact that the EFCC exist for the good of the people.  “The EFCC is for everybody and we will do all it takes to ensure that victims of fraud do not cry forever as far as it lies within the Commission’s mandate”. He warned all those who engage in various forms of fraud to desist as they will certainly face the full wrath of the law.


After receiving the cheques, Mrs Anibogu expressed gratitude to the Commission for helping her recover the money. “I am so happy and grateful to the EFCC for their efforts in making sure that I smile here today. Honestly, I never believed that this money will ever come back to me but I thank God for the EFCC for being the hope of the common people like me” she said.
