The Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu has urged Nigerians to unite and support the anti- corruption fight in order to bring Nigeria back to the path of glory.

Magu who stated this on Saturday, January 25, 2020 in Abuja, during the EFCC’s Fitness Exercise organised in collaboration with EFCC Ambassadors with the theme: “Let’s Unite in the War Against Corruption", said Nigerians have no reason to be poor with her hugely endowed  human and material resources.

The exercise which was organised in collaboration with the EFCC Ambassadors saw the attendance of notable comedians such as ‘I Go Die’, ‘Ambassador Wahala’, music icon, African China among others.

According to Magu, Nigerians desire for better living condition has made them to be found everywhere in the world because the common patrimony has been frittered away, living the vast majority of Nigerians in penury.

Magu, who was represented by Tony Amokeodo, Special Adviser on Media, pointed out that only the collective will and support of Nigerians would help the Commission attain desired results in the war against corruption.

“Nigeria belongs to all. It’s a collective work and needs all support,” he said.

He added, “Nigeria is one of the richest countries in the world. Anywhere you go in the world, you will see Nigeria, so we must change the narrative. That’s all, its a collective journey.”

Speaking at the event, ace comedian,  Francis Agoda, popularly known for his stage name as ‘I Go Dye’, said N14 trillion allocated to the Niger Delta region could not be accounted for, “meaning they have been stolen. I was passing through Port Harcourt, Rivers State a few weeks ago when I saw the militant blocking the road complaining of the underdevelopment of the region."
