LAGOS \u2013 Sequel to the\u00a0 damning Senate report on activities of Bureau of Public Enterprises, BPE, from 1999 till date, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has been asked to start a process that will lead to the prosecution of those indicted.<\/p>\n

Hailing\u00a0 the report of the lawmakers, a non-governmental organisation, Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project, SERAP, called on EFCC to \u201cpro-actively retrieve the report from the Senate and ensure the full and effective prosecution of those suspected to have perpetrated widespread corruption in BPE.\u201d<\/p>\n

Executive Director, SERAP, Mr. Tokunbo Mumuni, in a statement, said: \u201cThe BPE report clearly shows a serious breach of anti-corruption legislation and Nigeria\u2019s international obligations,\u00a0 including under the UN Convention against Corruption and the African Union Convention on Preventing and Combating Corruption both of which the country had ratified.<\/p>\n

The statement added that, \u201cIt is necessary for EFCC and the Senate to work closely to ensure that those suspected to be involved in corruption in BPE were brought to justice, and all proceeds of the alleged corruption\u00a0 recovered and returned to the treasury.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
