Nepotism, favouritism, partisanship killing Nigerian youths – EFCC

The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, EFCC, Ola Olukayode, has said that every young person needs an equal opportunity for self-expression but that Nigerian youths face serious impediments as a result of nepotism and favouritism.
Speaking during a Town Hall Meeting organized by the EFCC in Kano, the Chairman of the Commission, said the theme, “Uniting the Youths against Corruption: Shaping Tomorrow’s Integrity,” resonates deeply with the compelling need for young people to close ranks and confront the monster of corruption.
He said “Corruption affects every age group but bites harder against the prospects and possibilities of youths. This makes it more binding on young people to tackle it more fiercely than any other age group.”
The Chairman who spoke through the Kano Commander of the Commission, Ibrahim Shazali, noted that there is no sustainable success in internet fraud, saying that youths need collaborative efforts for progressive innovations, as they cannot achieve this in a corrupt environment
