He gave the charge while addressing the students of Epitome Model Islamic School in an event tagged: “12th Teenagers Workshop,” organised by Alhabibiyah Islamic Society for teenagers with focus on positioning the youth on the path of anti-corruption lifestyle.

EFCC spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, who stated this in a statement, said Olukoyede who was represented by the head, enlightenment and reorientation of the commission, assistant commander of the EFCC, Aisha Mohammed stated that transparency revolved around accountability, responsibility, openness and honesty.

 

According to him, “You can say transparency is being open and honest. Accountability is the willingness to account for one’s actions, while integrity is the quality of being driven by high moral principles. Accountability ensures that individuals and institutions take responsibility for their actions, it promotes answerability and explanations for decisions and behaviours. In the EFCC we say, integrity is doing the right thing even when no one is watching you.”
