The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is the Nigerian law enforcement agency that investigates financial crimes, among them advance-fee fraud — widely known as 419 — and money laundering.

It was created in 2003, partly in response to pressure from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), which named Nigeria among 23 countries considered non-cooperative in the global effort to stamp out money laundering. The commission’s head office is in Abuja.

Applications are being invited for the position set out below.
