The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission, Abdulrasheed Bawa, has revealed that the former Governor of Abia
State, Orji Kalu, will be “prosecuted all over again”.
Bawa stated this on Thursday while speaking with State House
reporters at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Recall that Kalu had been convicted up to the Court of
Appeal before the Supreme Court set him free on technical grounds.
Bawa also said the EFCC was set to begin prosecution of 800
new corruption cases.
He revealed that since his assumption, a number of
recoveries have been made including N6 billion, $161 million, £13,000 pounds,
€1,730 among others.
Internet fraudsters numbering 1,502 have also been
apprehended between January to June 2021 and efforts are underway to file about
800 of them.
A hundred cases will be filed in court, he said.
