Title
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and Corruption Management in Nigeria: A Perceptual Assessment of its Legal Framework by Hassan Said Umar & Kasim Umar from University of Abuja Nigeria
About
Dated Mar 2016 | Based on survey research that seeks to determine the appropriateness and the legal space to allow for the EFCC to operate for optimal results. | Not specific on cyber crime but interesting as to the effectiveness of the EFCC as at 2016
Key findings
The law establishing the EFCC has not provided it with adequate powers of prosecution in fighting financial crimes | The Nigerian court system has frustrated the efforts of the EFCC through delays and incessant injunctions | The senior legal counsel usually convene with the judges to subvert/manipulate judgements in favour of their clients | It is observed therefore that it is not just enough to have resources of both human and financial base but a clear mandate with precise target accompanied with adequate powers and space will do more good for a government and its people rather than having an agency with a bogus set of objectives and multi faceted mandates.
