Abuja – The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) says all
looted funds recovered by it are paid into the consolidated revenue
account of the Federal Government.
The commission made this known on its Twitter handle, @officialefcc in
response to a question from one of its followers.
In a tweet to the commission through the handle @asantoo11a, the
follower had asked; “When are we sharing our recovered looted money’’.

“Recovered funds are paid into the consolidated revenue account of the
Federal Government,’’ it tweeted in reply.
A section of the public has been raising questions about where crime
proceeds recovered by the commission are kept.
The EFCC also said there was no hiding place for looters, including
those who travel abroad to evade the arm of the law.
“Our network of partners includes the FBI (Federal Bureau of
Investigation) and other international law enforcement agencies.
“Perpetrators cannot hide forever. Send a petition,’’ it said in
response to an enquiry by one Biyi Soremekun.
Using the handle @adebiyie200, Soremekun asked what would happen in a
situation where an individual travels out of the country after
perpetrating fraud.
“What happens in a situation where someone defrauds you through issuance
of dud cheques or falsification of land documents and leaves the
country before you realise it.
The commission advised victims and members of the general public to
forward their petitions through its offices nearest to them, adding that
they could do so anonymously.
