ABOUT ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL CRIMES COMMISSION

The EFCC is like Nigeria’s police for money crimes. They started in 2003 to catch bad guys who do things with money they shouldn’t, like lying to steal money (scams), making dirty money clean (washing money), or giving bribes.

The EFCC checks these crimes very carefully. They take the bad guys to court and try to get the stolen money back. They also warn Nigerians about these crimes so they don’t get fooled.

Their job is very important to keep Nigeria’s money safe and people protected. By catching criminals, they want to make things fair and safe for everyone. They want people to trust Nigerian banks and do business honestly.

Some people say other powerful people make it hard for them, but the EFCC still works hard to stop money crimes and help Nigeria’s economy grow.
