 " Leaders of the EFCC should enforce the laws the way they are expected to be enforced. If you cross the line, the EFCC will investigate you and take you to court. But above all,  we must do this with "courage,  integrity and professionalism which are  the core values of the Commission and these are the values we should maintain",  he said.



He tasked every staff of the Zone to be prepared to take the EFCC to the next level,  stressing that taking responsibilities for actions and inactions was imperative. " We know what is expected of us. We should be ready to take the Commission to the next level",  he said.  He assured every staff of equal opportunity in the  area of welfare,  placement and acceptance,  stressing that  "each of us is important. We should always work as a team and there should be no dichotomy of any kind". 



The Chairman also stated that a well- articulated career path was underway for every staff of the EFCC and that Standard Operation Procedure(  SOP) would be institutionalised to discourage arbitrariness and discretion in carrying out official assignments. He warned staff against deliberate mistakes,  stressing that such conduct would not be tolerated.
