Labour pledges full support to EFCC in anti-corruption crusade

In a show of solidarity, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has thrown its weight behind the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in the fight against corruption.
NLC President Joe Ajaero made the declaration at the EFCC’s Walk against Corruption event in Abuja on Thursday, emphasizing the urgent need for collective action against corruption.
Ajaero urged the EFCC to remain vigilant against misinformation and to engage Nigerians in the anti-corruption campaign, fostering a mass movement that transcends generations.
He stressed that losing the fight against corruption would undermine the nation’s very existence.
Ajaero said, “There’s an urgent need for us to fight corruption, and the NLC will throw its weight behind the agency in all fights against corruption.

“Nigerians are united in the fight against corruption clearly I think what your agency needs to do is to connect them so that it will be a mass movement.
“We have to make sure that this fight, we are taking it to the next generation. It’s a fight that we can’t afford to lose. If we lose this fight, we have lost the essence of our existence as a nation.”
This development signals a significant boost to the EFCC’s efforts, as the NLC’s support brings a vast network of workers and citizens into the anti-corruption fold.
The partnership has the potential to mobilize a broader segment of Nigerian society, creating a united front against corruption.
As the EFCC continues its crusade, the NLC’s backing may prove pivotal in shaping public opinion and promoting a culture of accountability in Nigeria.
