In a recent post on its official X (formerly Twitter) handle, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has firmly denied claims made by Nigerian social media personality, Bobrisky, regarding his account being placed on Post-No-Debit and accusations of bribery demands by EFCC officials.
The EFCC clarified that Bobrisky’s allegations, particularly the claim that officers demanded N15 million to drop money laundering charges against him, are entirely false. According to the commission, after a thorough investigation, it was concluded that the money laundering case against Bobrisky lacked sufficient evidence, leading to its withdrawal.
The EFCC also revealed that Bobrisky had been invited to substantiate his claims by identifying the officers involved in the alleged bribery demand. However, despite this opportunity to support his accusations, Bobrisky failed to appear or provide any evidence to back his claims.
“We did not place Bobrisky’s account on Post-No-Debit, nor did the EFCC request any inducement to drop his money laundering charges,” the EFCC stated. “After a proper investigation, we withdrew the money laundering case. Bobrisky’s claims were false, and he was invited to identify officers who allegedly demanded N15 million but failed to show up.”
The agency’s response has stirred significant attention online, with many awaiting Bobrisky’s next move in the unfolding saga.
As this high-profile case gains further public interest, the EFCC’s firm stance on transparency and accountability in its operations remains evident, demonstrating its commitment to upholding the law and discrediting baseless allegations.
