The Executive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ola Olukoyede has raised a Disciplinary Team to look into the case of two errant officers of the Commission who allegedly assaulted a female staff of Regional Hotel, Ojo, Lagos.
The officers were sighted in a viral video assaulting the staff of the hotel in an early morning sting operation on Thursday, June 27, 2024.
Olukoyede ordered the arrest of the two officers and has directed them to appear before a joint Disciplinary Team comprising the Appointment, Promotion and Disciplinary Committee, APDC and the Department of Ethics and Integrity.
They are billed to appear before the Team on Monday, July 1, 2024 at the Corporate Headquarters of the Commission, Abuja. The team would look into the case of the officers and recommend appropriate disciplinary measures to be taken against them.
Olukoyede stressed that no stone will be left unturned in getting the officers to account for their unprofessional conduct.
This online medium had reported that the EFCC officials, dressed in plain clothes, were seen entering a hotel room forcefully. The video showed an unidentified woman, believed to be a hotel employee, attempting to open the door from inside when the men barged in. One of the officers is seen slapping the woman before ordering her out of the room.
This incident was recorded on Closed Circuit Television (CCTV).
