I Have Evidence That Shows Some Religious Organisations Are More Corrupt Than Public Offices – EFCC Boss, Olukoyede
The chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ola Olukoyede, has claimed that some religious organisations are “more corrupt” than public offices in Nigeria.
The EFCC boss stated this at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) leadership conference in Lagos on Friday.
According to him, his organisation recently recovered “many millions from a religious organisation.”
He urged clerics to use their platform “not only to preach but also to demonstrate” good characters to their congregation.
Olukoyede accused religious leaders of looking at the “speckle in someone else eyes while ignoring the log in theirs”.
He said, “Just this last week, I have had cause to recover how many millions from a religious organisation.
“They appointed you a pastor, and that is when you become a big man. We don’t even know what you are doing to earn a legitimate living. You live on the ministry and the church or mosque money. You can’t even explain the source of your wealth.
“Some religious organisations are more corrupt than public offices. I have evidence towards that. You look at the speckle in someone else eyes, but meanwhile, there is a log in yours.”
In January, Olukoyede said the EFCC uncovered a religious sect laundering money for terrorists in Nigeria
