The Korean Ambassador to Nigeria,
Lee In Tae, on Monday, pledged the support of the Korean Government to the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, in the area of cyber
intelligence.
Tae made the pledge as he led a
Korean delegation that comprised the Director of the Korean Cultural Center,
Abuja, Lee Jin Su on a on duty tour at the EFCC Headquarters, Jabi Abuja, where
Korean forensic experts are currently training officials of the Commission on
forensic technology.
The envoy expressed satisfaction
with the EFCC’s state-of-the-art Forensic Laboratory Directorate, and expressed
confidence that the Commission will drastically reduce corruption and cyber
crimes in the country.
“With you (EFCC), I see a Nigeria
that will be free of crimes,” Tae said.
The Acting Chairman of the
Commission, Ibrahim Magu, charged the Korean ambassador to assist the
Commission in the fight against corruption and cybercrimes.
Magu was confident that
collaboration with the Korean government would further strengthen the EFCC’s
capacity in the fight against corruption.
The EFCC boss noted that capacity
building was key in producing well equipped staff of the Commission who would
be able to stay ahead of fraudsters.
He expresses gratitude for the
current training opportunity from the Korean government to EFCC officials and
prayed for more of such opportunities.
“We appreciate your visit and we
want to be introduced to more opportunities to enable the Commission continue
fight against corruption, even if it means acquiring sophisticated and updated
equipment that will aid our anti-graft fight, we will be glad to receive it,”
Magu said.
