The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Kaduna Zonal Command claims to have secured over 200 convictions between January and December 2023.

Speaking on Saturday during the United Nations Anti-Corruption Day walk, the command’s head, Aisha Abubakar, said the EFCC’s investigation actions resulted in the recovery of assets worth millions of naira during the time under review.

While she decried the prevalence cases of internet-related fraud, particularly among the youths as young as 14 years, she assured that the commission will continue to relentlessly fight against corruption and economic crimes.

She said the commission, in addition to enforcement activities,  will continue to pursue its prevention mandate with relentless vigour through engagement with different stakeholders in the fight against corruption.
