The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, receives some EFCC officials at in palace in Osun State on September 5, 2019.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is seeking the support of traditional rulers in the country to tackle forms of corruption.

EFCC’s Ibadan Zonal Head, Mr Friday Bello, disclosed this when he led some officials of the commission on a visit to the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi.

The team visited the traditional ruler on Friday at his palace in Ile-Ife, Osun State to solicit for support to combat the scourge of financial crimes, especially among youths.

Bello told the Ooni that the visit was at the instance of the acting EFCC Chairman, Mr Ibrahim Magu, in ensuring that crime rate was brought to a minimal level in the country.

He added that the commission would intensify its efforts in the area of the campaign against corruption in order to disabuse the minds of the youths from engaging in cybercrime.

The EFCC zonal head noted that some of the youths who have been found culpable of cybercrime, after being reformed, have been found useful in helping the commission to crack down on others still in such illegal dealings.

In his remarks, Oba Ogunwusi advised the anti-graft agency not to be one-sided but remain neutral in its fight against crimes and corruption in the country.

He also urged the commission not to allow politicians to push it against the will of the people, stressing that its actions and inactions were being monitored by the public.

The traditional ruler asked the EFCC to create a unit where youths who have been arrested for cybercrimes can be reformed and utilise their skills in positive ways.

They should go ahead.......this country is turning into something else

Same way FBI seek for traditional ruler's support to bust crime. Right?! Enough of eye service, you're only appearing active because of FBI assignment given to you. The only support needed is for government to be responsible. Provide & create enabling environment for business and see cyber crime crash by 90%.

Things like this only happen in Nigeria. FBI didn't seek any traditional approval to arrest Invictus Obi

Very good, but why are you more focused on the youth? Are you scared of Tinubu and his colleagues?

Okay

Traditional Rulers are one of the reasons why Nigeria is where it is today. These men carry a dark cloud over their communities and clan. They interface with wicked and demonic spirits to oppress their people. Many towns in Nigeria that did away with traditional rulers or faded them gradually into oblivion began to experience socioeconomic change and prosperity. The one that retained the ancient landmark remained backwards till date.

Answer
One can't be bigger than his employer. They can only go against a politician who refuse to be loyal.

Selfish interest, only God knows what personal contract and interpersonal relationship they are orchestrating using fighting of corruption as headline. Let's watch and see how the yahoo Boiz sponsored politician names pans out. Then we can start contemplating to believe they're truly working.

Thank God I've finally made it outta zoo.

God Bless Donald Trump....I call him King!
