An unnamed operative of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has reportedly committed suicide at his residence in Abuja.
PRNigeria reports that the deceased, a member of Course 5, was a diligent, efficient, and unassuming officer of the anti-graft agency.
The Commission is exploring possible factors, including mental health and family challenges, that might have contributed to the operative’s depression and eventual tragic decision.
When contacted on the incident, the EFCC spokesperson, Mr. Dele Oyewale, said that an investigation was already underway to determine the circumstances surrounding the operative’s action.
The EFCC has, however, not released the operative’s name pending the conclusion of the investigation.
