The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) of Nigeria is taking strides in the fight against corruption by leveraging technology.
This initiative was announced by EFCC Chairman, Mr. Olanipekun Olukoyede, during the inauguration of an electronic learning management studio at the EFCC Academy in Abuja.
Olukoyede emphasized the critical role of technology in modernizing the commission's operations. "As you are all aware, our mandate is now technology-driven.
In those days, you get to go to the bank; you fill vouchers, fill everything, collect your card, put it in your boot and drive it home.
But today, at the press of a button, you move money across the world. So, if they have advanced in the way they move money, we are also advancing in the way we checkmate them, and that is the essence of this project," he stated.
The newly inaugurated e-learning studio aims to enhance the intellectual capacity and productivity of the EFCC workforce through distance learning.
Commandant of the EFCC Academy, Mrs. Chinwe Ndubeze, highlighted the importance of digital education.
"The EFCC Academy is the designated training Academy for NACIWA. You will be delighted to be part of launching our E-Learning system.
It is a demonstration that, not just the EFCC, but NACIWA is moving forward and not lagging behind with trends relating to the digital era," she said.
