“Corruption is the underlying factor of injustice. We should bridge the gap that is causing injustice. Social rancour is also caused by injustice. We must come together to rid our nation of injustice caused by corruption. What is good for one is good for all.
“He challenged the leadership of the PCC to work diligently in order to earn the support of Nigerians, maintaining that, “we expect your leadership to bring your Commission to great heights. Let your work commend you to Nigerians.”
He also called for a Memorandum of Understanding, MoU to concretize the EFCC’s relationship with PCC, promising that the existing collaboration between the two Commission will be strengthened.
“Earlier, Chief Commissioner, PCC, Abimbola Ayo Yusuf congratulated Olukoyede on his appointment and called for increased collaboration with his Commission to redress all administrative injustices and corrupt practices in both public and private organizations.
He stressed that PCC has similar focus and mandate with the EFCC “and this is why we need to deepen our working relationship, even our law empowers us to be the official whistle blower to your Commission and other law enforcement agencies”.
