The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Wednesday, 14th July 2021, launched a computer application known as “Eagle Eye”, to assist the reporting of economic and financial crimes to the commission. EFCC<\/a> launches ‘Eagle Eye’ App to ease financial crimes reporting.<\/p>\n

According to Abdulrasheed Bawa, the Chairman of the commission states that; the application was designed to complement existing channels of reporting crimes.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the launch in Abuja, Abdulrasheed said a unique advantage of the application was to eliminate direct person-to-person interface in the reporting process, thereby guaranteeing anonymity and an added incentive for effective whistle blowing.<\/p>\n

For us at the EFCC<\/a>, this event is unique in several ways. It\u2019s the first of its kind by any law enforcement agency in the country.<\/p>\n

Secondly, it\u2019s the product of ingenuity by a staff of the commission, being an application that was initiated, designed and developed by the EFCC<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Thirdly, it\u2019s a clear demonstration of my pledge, on assumption of office, to run an agency that\u2019s technologically driven\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n

The Eagle Eye presents a new experience, a new information sharing tool between the public and the EFCC<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With the App, those who are afraid of reporting cases of corruption to the commission, either for fear of being identified as a partner or having their identity reviewed, can now do so with the assurance of full secrecy.<\/p>\n

I, therefore, appeal to members of the public to take advantage of this application in bringing cases of corruption and economic crimes to the knowledge of the EFCC<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

According to Bawa, with the Eagle Eye, Nigerians and non-Nigerians alike can easily take pictures of property suspected to be fraudulently or corruptly acquired and report through the App.<\/p>\n

With the Eagle Eye, you have at your fingertips a device that will ultimately ensure that there is no hiding place for corrupt persons in Nigeria<\/a>\u201d, Bawa said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Explaining how it works, the EFCC<\/a> boss said: \u201cit is a friendly application with features that can be navigated by any literate person.<\/p>\n
