This is in response to the commission’s warning that certain organisations were preparing a string of anti-commission demonstrations.
The demands of the protesters, Concerned Nigeria Youths, were uploaded by a user on X.com going by the handle #PidomNigeria. The letter was addressed to Ola Olukoyede, the chairman of the EFCC, on July 4, 2024.
The protest is due to take place with a hashtag on X.com as #ReformEFCC.
