The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC has called for enhanced collaboration with Nigerian Correctional Service, NCoS to develop stronger strength in the fight against corruption.

The Abuja Acting Zonal Director of the commission, Assitant Commander of the EFCC, ACE 1 Michael Wetkas made this known on Thursday March 27, 2025 while receiving the Comptroller of Corrections, FCT, Command, Olatubosun Ajibogun, who came on a courtesy visit to the Abuja Directorate of the EFCC.

According to the Acting Zonal Director, law enforcement responsibility cannot be carried out by one sole agency. He said “Collaboration locally and internationally is the way to go, without which we cannot make any significant progress.

“You have demonstrated that by taking your time to reach out to us and extending your hand of friendship in service and to meet us for collaboration and for discussions to move our services and the nation entirely forward.”

Ajibogun while agreeing to Micheal Wetkas point of view, he said the “Correctional Service now focuses on skill acquisition, reformation and rehabilitation.” He appreciated the cooperation between the two agencies, advising that the legal team of the EFCC should begin to explore the options of non-custodial sentencing and for convicts to be sent to the appropriate correctional centers, explaining that “the custodial center which some convicts are sent to is not in line with the sentence”.
