The Group Managing Director (GMD) of the company, Alhaji Abdulahi Abdulmajeed, gave the commendation when he led a delegation of the management staff on a courtesy visit to the commission in Ilorin on Thursday.

Abdulmajeed said that the role played by the commission, in recovering the state assets from treasury looters, was commendable.

He described EFCC as a partner in progress, having contributed so much to the development of the state.

“The commission has done so much in helping the state government to recover its assets from suspected treasury looters

“We thank the zonal head for giving us the opportunity for this visit and we appreciate your efforts in fighting corruption in Kwara.

“Harmony Holdings Ltd commends your efforts for supporting the administration of Gov. Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq of Kwara,” he said.

The GMD, however, appealed for more support and pleaded with the commission to assist the agency in achieving its mandate.

Responding, the Ilorin Zonal Head of EFCC, Deputy Chief Detective Superintendent, Kazeem Oseni, promised to do more for the state in terms of recoveries and in prosecuting corrupt officials.
