EFCC under fire for mocking Fayose

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission mocked Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State after the failure of his preferred candidate, Prof. Kolapo Olusola, at the polls. The EFCC said in a tweet that with Fayose’s tenure ending in less than three months coupled with the loss of his immunity, he should begin to prepare to visit the commission.

The tweet read, “The parri (party) is over; the cloak of immunity torn apart and the staff broken. “Ekiti Integrated Poultry Project/Biological concepts Limited N1.3bn fraud case file dusted off the shelves. See you soon.”

However, a large section of Nigerians on Twitteraccused the EFCC of being unprofessional and fighting a one-sided anti-corruption war. The anti-graft agency subsequently deleted the tweet.
