Utazi gave this assurance on Monday, June 13, 2016 when he led a delegation of the Committee on  a visit to the acting Chairman,EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, at the Commission’s head office in Abuja.

He stated that one of the priorities of the Committee was to ensure that the Commission’s headquarters, which has been under construction,would be completed soon,  in order to give the staff an enabling environment to
carry out their duties more effectively.

He further commended Magu for the achievements he had recorded so far in the fight against corruption, while encouraging him remain steadfast.

“We have been monitoring the activities of the Commission with keen interest, especially in the area of fund recovery and we are very satisfied”, he added.

Responding, Magu thanked the Committee members and expressed his willingness to be supervised by the Committee.
