EFCC Returns €5,100 in Recovered Crime Proceeds to Spanish Ambassador

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has handed over €5,100 to Spanish Ambassador Juan Sell, proceeds from a romance scam recovered through a joint effort with Spanish authorities. This marked a significant milestone in the fight against cross-border financial crimes.

EFCC Chairman Ola Olukoyede emphasized that global cooperation is crucial in combating these crimes, citing the vast resources controlled by criminals worldwide ¹. He reaffirmed the EFCC’s commitment to making Nigeria inhospitable to corrupt individuals and praised the collaboration between the EFCC and Spanish Police.

Ambassador Sell expressed gratitude for the successful partnership, highlighting the importance of mutual trust and support in safeguarding the global financial ecosystem.

This development follows the EFCC’s ongoing efforts to sanitize Nigeria’s financial landscape, including the recent arrest of 34 suspected currency speculators in Abuja ¹. The EFCC’s dedication to combating financial crimes is evident in its consistent operations and international collaborations.
