The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ola Olukoyede, has vowed to resign as EFCC chairman if Yahaya Bello is not prosecuted.
Olukoyede said this in a chat with journalists at the EFCC Headquarters in the Jabi area of Abuja on Tuesday.
Parallel Facthad reported that EFCC is seeking to arraign Bello on 19 counts bordering on alleged money laundering, breach of trust, and misappropriation of funds to the tune of N80.2 billion.
Following this, the anti-graft chairman swore to follow the prosecution of former Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, to logical conclusion.
He further said that all those who obstructed the arrest of the former governor would be brought to justice and that no matter what anyone does or the amount of attack against the anti-graft agency, he and his men will not relent in helping to sanitise the country.
Olukoyede said the EFCC needs the support of Nigerians to succeed, emphasising that if the agency fails, Nigeria fails.
