Media mogul, Dele Momodu, has questioned the order given by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) directing all bankers and other operators in the Nigerian financial system to declare their assets by June 1, 2021.
Reacting to the EFCC directive, Momodu said Nigeria is not in a military regime and banks belong to private sector.
He stated this on Tuesday via his verified official twitter handle @DeleMomodu while urging the anti-graft agency to start declaration of assets from government agencies and politicians.
“Are we in a military regime? Why not start with government agencies and politicians? Banks belong largely to the private sector,” he tweeted.
