Ola Olukoyede, chairman of the Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), says he is focused on achieving President Bola Tinubu’s grand plans for a better Nigeria.
A statement by the anti-graft agency circulated on Friday quoted Olukoyede as saying this on Wednesday when he visited Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi (Ojaja II), in Ile-Ife, Osun.
“Let me state this clearly: all that I do in the course of discharging my duties as a public servant is not to witch-hunt anybody and not for any personal reasons but to ensure that the grand strategic plans of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu towards a better Nigeria are achieved”, he disclosed.
Olukoyede said the anti-graft agency under his watch had enjoyed support from the federal government, adding that Tinubu does not interfere in their activities and operations.
“Since I was appointed the chairman of the EFCC, the president has never called me to stop, impose, dictate or prescribe any directive as regards the affairs or activities of the commission, rather the anti-graft agency has so far enjoyed adequate support needed from the federal government towards achieving the mandate of the commission,” he stated.
The statement however quoted the Ooni who hosted Olukoyede was quoted as saying; “This shows that truly, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu stands to achieve a corrupt-free nation, and we all must support him by contributing our quotas.”
