“As we celebrate Eid al Adha, let’s keep our focus keener on tackling corrupt practices in our land. We have all it takes to confront and conquer financial and economic crimes. Nigeria is awaiting our collective efforts to make her the greatest nation on earth,” he said.

The EFCC boss specifically enjoined Muslims to use the occasion of Eid el Kabir celebrations to reflect more on sound initiatives to move the nation forward, maintaining that, “as long as we keep thinking and considering effective initiatives to move our nation forward, progress is inevitable. Tackling corruption is an all-time imperative. We must not shy away from it.”

He expressed appreciation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for leading the way, walking the talk and offering the right environment for the anti-corruption fight.

Olukoyede said, “We owe the President this obligation of appreciating him for this. Without a political will, we cannot tackle corruption effectively.”
