President Buhari has reportedly asked the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to present a report, itemising the assets and funds recovered from corrupt Nigerians.

A source close to the presidency says Buhari wants to present the report as a scorecard to critics of the war against corruption.

The source also said “Infact, in several yards across of the country where the EFCC keeps seized vehicles; Range Rovers, Jaguars, Prado jeeps, and expensive cars, we have heard reports of decay. The cars are allowed to rot, leading to massive waste.

“You will also recall that certificates of occupancy seized from the home of an ex-Governor were found in the market, where some EFCC officials were allegedly trying to sell them. The case is now with the police.”

According to Daily Post, the President also asked other anti-graft agencies to submit a similar report by Friday April 6, 2017.

Some of the agencies include: Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), Ministry of Finance and the Department of State Services (DSS).

This is coming after the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) called on the All progressives Congress (APC) to show Nigerians the progress they have made since 2015.
