    The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Uyo Zonal Office has secured 16 convictions in the first quarter of the year 2019, and recovered the total sum of N69,431,029 and $9,630.

    According to the Deputy Zonal Head, Alex Ebbah, who made the disclosure on May 3, 2019, three units of three bedroom flats situated at Oghara, Delta State, were also recovered after the Court ordered their final forfeiture, including one Lexus E350 saloon car.

    Ebbah said: “Recall that the office was opened in mid-2017 by the Acting EFCC Chairman, Ibrahim Magu, with an effort to reduce the level of economic and financial crimes around the Niger Delta region, mostly Akwa Ibom and Cross River State.

    “The Office has so far made significant progress with regards to fighting corruption around the region and is still on its stand to see that the level of corruption is reduced to the barest minimum in the Zone”, Ebbah said.
