EFCC Reveals 34-Month Performance: N1.233tn Recovered, 10,872 Convicted

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) says it recovered N1.233 trillion and secured 10,872 convictions between October 1, 2023, and July 31, 2026.

The commission disclosed the figures in a video posted on its official X account on Thursday, highlighting its activities during the 34-month period under the leadership of EFCC Chairman Ola Olukoyede.

According to the EFCC, it received 49,673 petitions during the period, which it described as the “entry point” for its investigations.

The commission said it investigated 39,615 cases and filed 14,476 cases in court, resulting in 10,872 convictions.

The EFCC said the recoveries were linked to investigations into various forms of financial crimes, including advance-fee fraud, cybercrime, money laundering, bank fraud and economic governance-related offences.

It explained that the recovered funds were traced through financial transactions and investigations into suspected financial crimes.

The commission said the figures reflected its efforts to strengthen enforcement and combat economic and financial crimes in the country.

“The work continues,” the EFCC said.
