An operative of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has taken his own life at his residence in Abuja.
The deceased, a member of Course 5, was described by colleagues as diligent, efficient, and unassuming.
The incident, which occurred on Monday, has been confirmed by the EFCC spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, who stated that an investigation is currently underway to determine the reasons behind the operative’s decision to end his life.
Sources within the Commission revealed that the deceased had been experiencing issues with his immediate superior, a female boss, for some time.
However, it is unclear if these issues directly contributed to his decision to commit suicide.
The EFCC has not released the name of the operative as the investigation is still ongoing.
