Abdulrasheed Bawa Threatens To Resign If Asked To Compromise by valentineuwakwe(m): 12:25am On Mar 28, 2021
The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Abdulrasheed Bawa, has threatened to resign from the position, if he is asked to compromise.

Bawa said this when he featured in a NTA interview programme One-on-One on Friday.

His words were posted in a statement on the EFCC’s official Twitter handle.

“We need to change our attitudes in Nigeria,” Bawa was quoted to have said.

“We are in the habit of worshipping people that have money in the society, but never bother to ask questions about their source of income. In winning the fight against corruption, we are engaging all stakeholders including religious leaders, community leaders and others.

“We are going to embark on massive public enlightenment to sensitise people on the need to shun corruption in all its forms.”

The EFCC boss continued, “I will continue to do what is right.

“The Commission under my watch will continue to abide by the rule of law. If anybody asks me to do anything contrary to my conscience or against the rule of law, I will resign my appointment.”

Bawa officially assumed duty as the head of the anti-graft agency earlier this month.

He replaces Ibrahim Magu, following his nomination by President Muhammadu Buhari to the Senate, which confirmed him.

Until big time thieving billionaires are jailed and their assets confiscated whether from North or South, EFCC remains a tool to supress opposition.
Thieves like Ganduje Yahya Bello, Fashola, Tinubu, Atiku Orji Kalu, Oshomole, Amaechi etc should be in jail today, if Nigeria is a serious country.

From your post only APC members & Atiku are Corrupt. It's not an accident that almost all those you mentioned are in APC. Lets get ride of Looters irrespective of Party/Region & Religion

it is only God that can deliver Nigeria, if you listen to this one now, you will think he's clean and not corrupt, if they investigate him now and you see the skeleton in his cupboard

maybe you will realize why we are not moving as a country.

Until you start jailing all the corrupt politicians in respect of party or tribe then I know you can't be bought.


but ever since you resumed office, your boys have been chasing the petty thieves with laptops and dreadlocks and left the bigger thieves when have mansions and accounts offshore.


please man up Bawa. hope this is not the initial gra gra.
