N30 Billion Recovered From Whistle Blowing - Magu

Posted by Factnews | 6 years ago | 1,933 times



The Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, says more than N30 billion looted funds have been recovered since the commencement of the whistle blowing policy.

He stated this at the launch of the whistle-blower support project Tagged ‘Corruption Anonymous’ (CORA).

The project is being organised by the African Centre for Media and Information Literacy, AFRICMIL, in partnership with the MacArthur Foundation.

In a speech at the event, Magu said the EFCC has created an environment for those with information to approach the Commission, confident that the information they give would be put into effective use.

Thursday’s speech comes about two months after Magu noted that some of the tip-offs passed to anti-graft detectives by whistle blowers were leading nowhere.

The EFCC chief, however, explained his stance at the event.
