EFCC Returns Stolen Funds To NNPC
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has returned N3.9 billion recovered from fraudsters to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC).
The funds were part of stolen monies traced to illegal activities involving oil and gas contracts.
The repayment comes after months of investigation and asset recovery efforts by the anti-graft agency.
EFCC said the returned money will be reintegrated into NNPC’s accounts to support ongoing operations and projects.
NNPC officials confirmed receipt of the funds and stated that the recovered amount would be used to enhance transparency and strengthen financial management within the company.
The move highlights ongoing efforts by authorities to recover misappropriated public funds and reinforce accountability in Nigeria’s oil sector.
