The Economic Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has said that no amount of scare-mongering will dissuade it from “vigorously enforcing its mandate to rid Nigeria of corruption”, if the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, is found guilty in its latest findings. The Commission, was responding to an alarm by Ike Ekweremadu, that it plans to set him up, by planting cash and weapons at his houses, to be unearthed during a planned raid.

Let it be known however, that there wil...
