The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has disclosed through a press release that it has secured 2,220 convictions in 2021 bringing the total convictions secured by the Commission to 5,629 between 2010 and 2021.
However, there is no transparency in the data released by the Commission as it has not published full details of cases and persons convicted thus far.
The EFCC has since 2016 stopped publishing, on its website, a detailed yearly record of convictions it has secured and persons convicted of money laundering, corruption, cybercrime, advance fee fraud, et cetera.
