EFCC Crackdown: Fighting Corruption Or Silencing Critics?

Nigeria Daily

About this episode

In a dramatic turn of events, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has been summoning some of Nigeria's most prominent politicians for questioning over the past six months. But as the list of invitees grows, so do allegations of political bias.

 Critics claim that many of those being probed belong to opposition parties, fueling speculation that the EFCC is being wielded as a tool for political vendetta. 

In today's episode of Nigeria Daily, we'll take a closer look at the politicians who've been called in, and explore the burning question: are these investigations genuinely about holding public officials accountable, or are they just a manifestation of politics as usual?
