The acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Magu, has claimed that corruption is a major cause of Coronavirus.

Naija News reports that the COVID-19, popularly called Coronavirus, was first discovered in Wuhan, China in December.

The zoonotic disease has since spread to over 25 countries, with over 73,000 infected persons and not less than 1,875 deaths.

Speaking on Tuesday at the passing out parade of 281 cadets of the EFCC Detective Inspector Course-5, at the Nigerian Defence Academy, Magu said social vice is worse than any known disease and is the cause of coronavirus.

“The EFCC is not satisfied with just prosecuting and jailing the fraudsters, rather the commission has concluded plans to reform them in collaboration with relevant government agencies towards making them better citizens,” Magu said.

“EFCC has zero-tolerance for corruption as our mandate is to kill corruption as corruption is worse than all the diseases we have now and I strongly believe coronavirus is caused by corruption.

“Corruption is a huge burden to our nation it has spread to insecurity, poverty, unemployment, falling standard of education, weak access to affordable health care, falling infrastructure and so many others.”

The EFCC boss stated that to secure a better future for Nigerians and future generations the fight against corruption is one that must be won.

“As part of vigorous pursuit, the commission has created new specialised directorate and section taking into cognisance the changing phase of criminality,” he said.

“This directorate includes asset forfeiture and recovery management directorate, forensic and science laboratory directorate, anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism section.”
