The EFCC chairman said as much as the country needs to generate revenue to finance various projects, more efforts should be put into plugging leakages in the system.
“It is good for us to observe for now and wait for your committee to conclude its work so that whatever report you have and anyone that your committee decides, we are ready to take it up from there.
We have recovered over N1 billion sitting in the account of a civil servant last week”Bawa said
The EFCC boss expressed worry that many government agencies do not have audit reports since they were established.
