In a plenary statement, the Senate applauded the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for reported recoveries and convictions secured during the current administration, describing the results as positive steps in the fight against grand corruption. Senators lauded the agency’s efforts to retrieve public assets and called for continued diligence in prosecuting high-profile cases.
Lawmakers urged the EFCC to sustain momentum and to ensure that recoveries are transparently managed and repurposed for public benefit. The chamber also reminded anti-corruption agencies of the need to uphold due process and the rule of law in all investigations.
Some senators recommended strengthening inter-agency cooperation, improving forensic capacity and expanding asset-tracing partnerships with international counterparts to boost future recoveries.
