Can someone please explain to me why this yeye organization called EFCC was formed in the first place? I thought they where supposed to be going after corrupt politicians and their likes, why always going after Yahoo boys and lesser financial criminals while politicians are busy looting public funds every now and then, something keeps telling me EFCC is more corrupt than our politicians
