Olukoyede Begins Restructuring Of EFCC – Makes New Appointments
Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Ola Olukoyede, has commenced the restructuring of the anti-graft agency.
Lifestyle Nigeria reports that as part of this restructuring, Michael Nzekwe has been appointed as the Chief of Staff, while zonal directors have also been appointed for each of the 14 zonal commands of the commission.
According to a statement released on the EFCC’s website, Nzekwe is a highly experienced investigator and lawyer who has previously served as the commander of the Ilorin Zonal Command. He is also a course-one officer of the commission.
The statement reads: “He has served in various departments in the Commission, including Legal and Prosecution Department, Department of Operations (now Department of Investigations), Department of Internal Affairs (now Department of Ethics and Integrity), Servicom, and Asset Forfeiture Department.
“A seasoned administrator, he has attended several trainings and courses home and abroad, including the Advance Defence Intelligence Officers Course organised by the Defence Intelligence Agency, DIA. The appointment takes immediate effect and he has assumed duties.
“Olukoyede, in his restructuring and repositioning of the EFCC, equally upgraded all the Zonal Commands of the Commission to the status of Departments, with each of them headed by a Director. To this effect, 14 new directors have been appointed to head each of the Zonal Commands. Additionally, to bolster and fortify the security architecture of the Commission, the Security Unit of the EFCC has been upgraded to a department with a seasoned officer appointed as Director, Security and Chief Security Officer.
“A new department has also been created in the Executive Chairman’s office and it is headed by former Makurdi Zonal Commander of the EFCC, Mr. Friday Ebelo, who also doubles as Director and Coordinator, Special Duties, at the corporate headquarters of the Commission. The former Department of Internal Affairs has been renamed Department of Ethics and Integrity and minor reshuffling effected in some departments at the headquarters.
“An important component of the restructuring is the creation of a new department to drive the preventive mandate of the EFCC. Olukoyede, in an unprecedented move, created the Fraud Risk Assessment and Control Department to handle this all-important work of the Commission. The department has commenced operations and its impact will be felt more across the country in a short while.

IPOB Asks Justice Nyako To Step Down From Kanu’s Case
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) is requesting the removal of Justice Binta Nyako from the case of their leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
Lifestyle Nigeria reports that according to IPOB’s spokesperson, Emma Powerful, the group believes that Justice Nyako has been “compromised” by the Federal Government, making it impossible for her to deliver a just verdict in the case.
Because of this, Biafrans worldwide are demanding that Justice Nyako step down from the case.
IPOB has alleged that Justice Nyako is under pressure from the Federal Government of Nigeria to imprison an innocent man to save her husband and son from the EFCC.
The statement said, “The global family of IPOB demands that Justice Binta Nyako step down from Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s case. Nyako is already compromised because the Federal Government of Nigeria is pointing a gun at her head to jail Kanu to free her husband and son from their EFCC case.
“IPOB will never allow the Federal Government to use our leade as bait to entice Nyako to carry out their ugly agenda. Kanu cannot be sacrificed to save the corrupt and treasury looters. Kanu has not committed any offence known to the law. His only offence is that he is championing Biafra’s self-determination movement.
“Justice Nyako must understand that Kanu belongs to every South Easterner and they don’t want to see anything ugly happen to him. The calamity that will befall the country will be better imagined. President Bola Tinubu and Nyako must save the country by releasing Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.”
