The Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Magu has said going to work late is corruption.
He made this statement during an rally organised by the EFCC, National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Ministry of Women Affairs and the Ministry of Sports and youth development.
in his words, “Women and children own the future of this country. They are the most vulnerable when it comes to corruption. You are victims. We are victims. That is why we call on you to stand tall in the fight against corruption and illicit financial flow. You must learn to protect your future.
“It is our responsibility to take away this evil. I am surprised that by this time, at 10.30 am, only less than 10 per cent of the civil servants are in the government offices. You can check the Federal Secretariat premises where we are standing – only less than 10 per cent are in office. It is unfortunate. It is part of corruption.
“The Nigerian government and the President have approved and we have taken a common position on assets’ recovery and returns. This is what we are doing in the fight against corruption and financial flows. We must not allow corruption to ruin this country”.
