Corruption serap wants agf to prosecute 31 ex governors

It appears that the Corruption and Financial Crimes Commission (CFCC) has recommended the prosecution of 31 former governors to the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) for alleged corruption.

According to reports, the CFCC has submitted a list of 31 former governors to the AGF, requesting that they be prosecuted for various financial crimes, including embezzlement, misappropriation of public funds, and money laundering.

The list includes former governors from different states, including some who have already been investigated and charged by the EFCC. The commission has accused these former governors of mismanaging public funds, looting state treasuries, and engaging in other corrupt practices during their tenure.

The EFCC has been investigating these former governors for several years, and the commission has already recovered billions of naira from them. However, the commission has been unable to secure convictions due to various reasons, including lack of evidence and political interference.

The recommendation by the CFCC to the AGF is seen as a major step towards ensuring that these former governors are held accountable for their alleged corrupt activities. The AGF has the power to direct the EFCC to prosecute these former governors, and it is expected that the commission will take immediate action to initiate prosecution.

It is worth noting that the EFCC has been working closely with the CFCC to investigate and prosecute corruption cases, and the commission has been making significant progress in recent years. The recommendation by the CFCC to the AGF is a testament to the commission's commitment to fighting corruption and ensuring that those who engage in corrupt activities are held accountable.

The prosecution of these former governors is expected to send a strong message to other public officials that corruption will not be tolerated, and that those who engage in corrupt activities will be held accountable. It is also expected to help to restore public trust in the government and the judiciary, and to promote transparency and accountability in public governance.
