A mild drama occurred at the office of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Monday, June 2, 2025, when a middle-aged man walked into the office premises and reported himself for the offence of impersonation and obtaining by false pretence, citing the fear of the agency.
The EFCC disclosed this via a statement on Monday.
The suspect, Idris Adamu, walked into the commission’s office in Gombe, the capital of Gombe State, at about 1 p.m. and requested to see the Acting Zonal Director, Deputy Commander of the anti-graft agency, DCE Sa’ad Hanafi Sa’ad.
Adamu said he wanted to confess some hidden truths about the crimes he had committed in the past.

While at the director’s office, the suspect said: “I came to repent of my sins and to confess to the EFCC.
“In the past, I have obtained the aggregate sum of N9 million through my bank account from different individuals in the guise of offering them employment opportunities in federal government agencies, which was false. I have changed, but I am afraid of the EFCC.
Sa’ad, having listened to Adamu’s confession, thanked him for speaking to the EFCC and directed that the self-confessed suspect be taken to the investigation department for a thorough investigation of the case.
