Justice Babatunde Adejumo, OFR (Rtd), has extended a hand of fellowship to one of its partners, the Economic and Financial Crime Commission.
Hon. Justice Babatunde Adejumo, OFR (Rtd), on Tuesday, August 26, 2025, expressed the Institute’s desire to further strengthen the collaboration between the Institute and the Economic and Financial Crime Commission for the greater good of the nation.
