EFCC Chairman Urges Students to Join Fight Against Corruption

EFCC Chairman Urges Students to Join Fight Against Corruption

The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ola Olukoyede, has called on Nigerian students to actively participate in the fight against corruption, stressing that the menace is not limited to government circles but also festers in homes and educational institutions.

Speaking on Wednesday during the inauguration of the Integrity Club at Al-Hikmah University, Kwara State, Olukoyede, represented by the Head of Public Affairs, Ilorin Zonal Command, ACE II Ayodele Babatunde, emphasized the importance of promoting transparency, discipline, and patriotism among youths.

“Corruption is not an abstract idea, it is the abuse of entrusted power for personal gain. From bribery and exam malpractice to cybercrime and sex-for-grades, corruption exists in various forms and thrives in our homes, schools, and among peers,” he said.

He encouraged students to be proactive in the fight, urging them to serve as ethical role models and advocates of integrity within their communities.

“Education should empower you with knowledge, not with schemes to defraud others. While social media may glorify ill-gotten wealth, the reality often leads to disgrace, prison, or worse,” he added.

The EFCC boss reiterated that the Integrity Club initiative aims to foster zero tolerance for corruption and raise a generation committed to national development and ethical leadership.

In his remarks, the Vice-Chancellor of Al-Hikmah University, Prof. Noah Yusuf, applauded the EFCC’s youth-centered reorientation drive, assuring the commission of the university’s continued support in championing integrity and good character.

“The EFCC has demonstrated great foresight by targeting the youth for early reorientation. At Al-Hikmah University, we are proud to support this initiative and committed to producing graduates who shine in both academics and character,” Prof. Yusuf stated.
