The Vanguard reports that Ike Ekweremadu has been decorated anti-corruption ambassador by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
He was decorated in his office by a team from EFCC, led by the National Assembly Liaison Officer, Suleiman Bakari.
Ekweremadu stated that if war against corruption must be achieved in all its ramifications, there was the urgent need to establish special anti-corruption courts.
Ekweremadu said: “I have been an advocate of special courts for the trial of corruption cases and I believe that other countries, who have enacted laws establishing such, are not fools because there are benefits to be derived therefrom.
“The idea is to expedite trial to make sure that those who are involved in corruption matters will have their day in court.
“When we have special courts, just as we have the National Industrial Court, such courts will do better than they are doing now.”
