The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has responded to a viral video showing former militant leader Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, being sprayed with money at a public event.
Over the weekend, the video circulated widely on social media, sparking reactions from Nigerians who challenged the EFCC to take action. In the footage, Tompolo is seen walking and dancing through a crowd while guests shower him with cash.
The public outcry has drawn attention to the EFCC’s ongoing efforts to clamp down on acts of financial recklessness and the public display of wealth, especially those that contravene Nigeria’s laws on money laundering and abuse of the naira.
