In the 12 March letter to Mr Olukoyede, PREMIUM TIMES requested that the EFCC immediately charge the suspects to court with all offences relating to the established case of serious bribery.
“Your agency, with its exclusive powers to investigate breaches of the Code of Conduct for Public Officers, stipulated in the Nigerian constitution, occupies a unique place in the fight against public corruption,” parts of the letter read. “Therefore, we are requesting that you immediately take appropriate disciplinary actions against these officers and hasten up their prosecution by the EFCC to send a strong signal to your entire workforce that the NCS, on your watch, would no longer condone acts of bribery or any other form of economic sabotage.”More than six weeks after we wrote to the Nigerian authorities asking them to prosecute the indicted officials, none of them has replied to us.
