FIGHTING CORRUPTION: The Economic and financial Crime Commission i.e the EFCC is the most pronounced body set up by the previous Obasanjo administration to fight one great enemy of this nation which is corruption. The purpose is clear but the question is are they living up to it? Why is it that corruption still stares us in the face with the intent to tear the very fabric of this nation apart. What is the challenge of the EFCC? Is it politcization? Is it now a tool to get at perceived offenders of the powers that be? See, I have respect for the people in EFCC because I believe they are fighting as noble cause. This can be rubbished when there is undue interferance in their operations. Maybe they should be given free hand to carry out their assignment with little or no concern for sacred cows. We want to see a more vibrant EFCC. I hope they will see this piece and pay attention to the issues raised.
