Unilorin VC Appaluds Olukoyede on Impactful Fight against Corruption The Vice Chancellor of the University of Ilorin, Professor Wahab Egbewole, SAN has commended the Executive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Mr. Ola Olukoyede for his giant strides in the fight against economic and financial crimes and other acts of corruption in the country. He gave the commendation in Abuja on Friday, April 17, 2026 when he led a delegation of the management team of the university on a courtesy visit to the EFCC boss at the Commission’s corporate headquarters. Egbewole, who noted that the success of the anti-corruption fight was central to a better Nigeria, praised Olukoyede for the massive recoveries of proceeds of crime and the channeling of such recoveries to result-oriented national ventures. “You are doing a wonderful job in the EFCC. I have followed very keenly because I believe that if we are able to solve the challenge of economic and financial crimes in Nigeria, the country will be a lot better than we currently have it. One of the things that I've seen is that one of your cardinal programmes as the Executive Chairman is to ensure that we prevent crime. And of course raising over N500 billion from proceeds of crime means that EFCC is doing wonderfully well. More of the difference now is that when we get these recoveries we see them being channeled to more positive and developmental things. You will continue to make better strides,” he said. He further noted that Olukoyede’s back-to-back election as the chairman of Network of Anti-corruption Institutions in West Africa, NACIWA is unprecedented and an additional testimony to his leadership qualities. He disclosed that the university authorities were motivated to visit the EFCC owing to the need to forge partnership and synergy with it in the fight against corruption as well as in the reorientation of the society towards ethical electoral behaviours. “Why do we have to pay this courtesy visit? As a university, we have a Center for Peace and Strategic Studies and we believe that one of the challenges of our society is the fact that violence and corruption bedevil our electioneering process. And we believe that it is important for us to engage the stakeholders in a way that they will call attention of the Nigerian people to those preventive measures that we need to take. And we believe that one of the major critical stakeholders in ensuring that we avoid corruption in our process is the EFCC,” he said. He expressed faith in the ability of the EFCC to provide the platform to get the critical stakeholders to rob minds “and ensure that never again should we get to that point in our electioneering process.” Speaking further, he stressed that, “ as a University, we believe that collaborating with anti-corruption institutions will assist us in managing our affairs. Universities are expected to be the epitome of the best of everything in any society. But the roles that the university system plays today speak volumes. We believe that partnership and synergy between EFCC and the academia will also go a long way in reducing the challenges of corruption in Nigeria.” The EFCC Chairman, who was delighted by the visit disclosed that his interest in the educational sector motivated him to convoke a roundtable with the Committee of Vice Chancellors in July 2025. “We have other activities to also support the educational sector. From our recovery account, we supported NELFund. In fact it was our recovered funds that served as seed fund for it to take off. The same applies to Credit Corporation,” he said.
