The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) says it secured 10,872 convictions and recovered more than N1.233 trillion between October 2023 and July 2026.
The commission also reported substantial foreign currency seizures during the 34-month period under its chairman, Ola Olukoyede.
The figures were disclosed at the joint security press briefing for September and October 2026, held at the Office of the National Security Adviser in Abuja on November 5.
The EFCC also announced the arrest and extradition of two Nigerians to the United States over alleged sexual exploitation and extortion of minors.
The suspects, Adebola Festus Adekunle and Mudashiru Afeez Olawale, were extradited following a joint operation with the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), codenamed Operation Artemis.
They were indicted in the US in 2023 over the allegations.
The commission further disclosed that it had established Integrity Clubs in 50 secondary schools as part of efforts to promote anti-corruption awareness among young people.
The initiative, inaugurated on October 28 at Junior Secondary School, Jabi 2, Abuja, brought the total number of anti-corruption enlightenment campaigns conducted in primary, secondary and tertiary institutions nationwide to 925.
