Ola Olukoyede, chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), says Nigerians should couple their excitement and renewed hopes in 2026 with zero tolerance for economic and financial crimes and other acts of corruption.
Olukoyede spoke in his New Year message, issued by Dele Oyewale, EFCC’s spokesperson.
He said the euphoria of the new year is gladdening but should awaken in every Nigerian a deeper drive for accountable conduct to make the nation enviable and sustainably great.
“As we welcome the new year with excitement and renewed hopes, let us renew our commitment and channel our energy to the paths of accountability and zero tolerance for corruption,” the EFCC chairman said.
Olukoyede expressed optimism that Nigeria will break away from the shackles of poverty and deprivation, stressing that the renewed hope agenda of President Bola Tinubu is hinged on making the country great again.
“We can make Nigeria greater. This is the pivot of the renewed hope agenda of Mr President. Nigeria will rise again,” he said.
