$825bn Fraud: HEDA Wants EFCC, ICPC, To Revisit Abandoned Corruption Cases
The Human & Environmental Development Agenda (HEDA) has asked the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) to revisit some high-profile cases they had allegedly abandoned.
HEDA, who published a compendium of 100 corruption cases, has demanded that the anti-graft agencies revisit the cases for proper prosecution.

Some of the cases listed in the HEDA compendium include the Halliburton bribery scandal worth $180,000,000,000 and the Dasukigate arms deal involving $2,000,000,000, among others.
The Chairman of HEDA, Olanrewaju Suraju in a statement said the organisation will stage a protest at the Lagos offices of the two agencies if the cases are not revisited.
He said: “Against this backdrop, HEDA has decided to organize the protest as a step towards drawing attention once again to the issue of corruption and the unresolved corruption cases in Nigeria, demanding immediate action.
