EFCC: Bawa as game-changer


EFCC: Bawa as game-changer
By John Oloruntoba
WITH the appointment of Abdulrasheed Bawa, President Muhammadu Buhari may have finally found the magic wand to reinvigorate the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, and combat graft.
 This was the preponderant thinking among stakeholders following the statement announcing a change of guard at the iconic Tunde Idiagbon House, thus sealing the hopes of embattled Ibrahim Magu to return to his exalted office after his dramatic suspension last year and even melodramatic trial by the Justice Ayo Salami-led panel.
EFCC came into being in 2003 as part of a national response to address the challenge posed by the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering, FATF, which had indicted Nigeria as one of 23 countries that were not cooperating in the global efforts to fight money laundering. ....

Bawa: Between Merit and the Law


BRIEFING NOTES
One of the most dominant topics in the country today is the issue of adherence to the rule of law or lack of it in appointments into federal positions.

The war against corruption must now be strengthened and refocused, writes Etim Etim
The appointment of a new chairman for the EFCC last week by President Muhammadu Buhari should bring the drift and commotion within the commission to an end and reposition it to perform its core functions more effectively. Although the commission has been fairly successful in its core mandate of fighting corruption, it has also been in the news for the wrong reasons bordering on mismanagement of its resources, poor accountability and political interference in its affairs.
There is so much for Abdulrasheed Bawa, the youthful new chairman selected from the rank of the commission’s Course One Cadets to do to reset the EFCC on a trajectory of professionalism, independence and service. The war against corruption must now be strengthened and refocused. The people who stole from the country should never be allowed a moment of peace.
