Controversial Nigerian figure Bobrisky has criticized the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), calling it the “most wicked” organization in the country.

In his post, he expressed frustration with the EFCC’s approach, adding, “The police are 100% better than you all, one million times.”
