The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ola Olukoyede, has revealed startling details about a religious organisation allegedly involved in laundering money for terrorists operating in Nigeria.

Olukoyede made this revelation during a one-day dialogue held in Abuja on Wednesday, themed “Youth, Religion, and the Fight against Corruption.”

Addressing attendees at the event, Olukoyede disclosed that the EFCC had uncovered evidence linking a religious body to money laundering activities.

He revealed that the commission traced suspicious funds to the bank account of the said organisation, indicating its complicity in financial crimes.

“We were able to trace some laundered money to a religious organisation,” Olukoyede stated.

However, the EFCC chairman highlighted the challenges encountered during the investigation, noting that the religious organisation obstructed the probe by obtaining a restraining order against the commission.

“When we approached the religious organisation about it and we were carrying out our investigation, we got a restraining order stopping us from carrying out our investigation,” Olukoyede explained.
