EFCC Chairman Ola Olukoyede has launched an investigation into Bobrisky’s claim of being extorted for N15 million by EFCC officers to drop money laundering charges. The inquiry follows a viral video where Bobrisky alleges bribery. The EFCC invites both Bobrisky and his associate for questioning.
The Executive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Mr. Ola Olukoyede, has initiated an investigation following allegations made by Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky. In a viral video, Okuneye claimed that certain unnamed EFCC officers demanded the sum of N15 million to drop money laundering charges against him.
In response to these serious allegations, Olukoyede has formed a dedicated team of investigators tasked with examining the claims. The EFCC has formally invited both Okuneye and the individual who shared the video to present themselves at its Lagos Directorate to assist with the investigation. This step underscores the Commission's commitment to transparency and accountability in handling such allegations.
The EFCC reassured the public that the investigation will be thorough and that the findings will be made public once completed. The Commission emphasizes its core values of integrity, professionalism, and collaboration, stating that it is dedicated to addressing any potential misconduct within its ranks.
The situation has sparked widespread commentary on social media, with many users expressing skepticism about the agency's integrity and questioning the validity of the claims. The public response highlights a broader mistrust in the EFCC, urging the organization to conduct a fair and impartial investigation to restore confidence among Nigerians. As the inquiry progresses, many are keen to see the outcomes and any subsequent actions taken against those involved.
