The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has announced its return to X formerly Twitter with a bold message, declaring that “there are some birds you cannot keep down.”

Many claimed it was a hacking attempt by some internet fraudsters otherwise known as Yahoo boys.
But debunking the allegation, the EFCC’s spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, said an update on the agency’s account is responsible for the glitch.
Dele Oyewale in a statement said; ”our X account is down temporarily due to ongoing upgrade and we will soon bounce back.
“You know when there is an upgrade in a system, it may be temporarily down and inaccessible. We doing the upgrade to serve the public better.
“You can see that other social media pages of the commission are still functional”.
He said that the anti-graft agency was also updating its records on the account.
