Nigerians have taken to the đť•Ź account of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to share mixed reactions following a post from the anti-graft agency warning against illegal wealth.
Naija News reports the EFCC had on Sunday, shared a bible verse to warn Nigerians against unjust wealth and the need to avoid associating with those involved in suspicious activities.
Quoting from the Christian’s holy book, the EFCC warned Nigerians not to become poor old fools.
“From the Sacred Altar of the Eagle: DO NOT BECOME POOR OLD FOOLS,” it wrote and shared a bible verse from Jeemiah 17:11, which reads: “Like a partridge that hatches eggs she has not laid, so are those who get their wealth by unjust means. At midlife, they will lose their riches; in the end, they will become poor old fools.”
The post, however, attracted mixed reactions from Nigerians, with some telling the agency to focus on corrupt politicians, while others cautioned against bringing religion into its activities and urged the EFCC to remain neutral in religious activities.
