The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has returned a total sum of $120,548.43 and N70,602,841.46 to victims of fraud from the United States, Spain, and Switzerland as part of its ongoing efforts to combat economic and financial crimes.
The funds, recovered from local fraudsters, were handed over to the foreign victims as part of the EFCC’s commitment to ensuring justice and restitution for those affected by fraudulent activities.
The anti-graft agency reiterated its dedication to tracking down financial criminals and recovering stolen assets, emphasizing that such efforts strengthen Nigeria’s credibility in the global fight against financial crimes.
This latest recovery and restitution underscore the EFCC’s resolve to protect both local and international victims of fraud, reinforcing its role as a leading force in the fight against corruption.
