Joy in Kaduna as EFCC Returns ₦42.5 Million to 70-Year-Old Widow Defrauded by Fraudsters


 Kaduna, Nigeria — November 7, 2025:

There was jubilation and tears of relief in Kaduna as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) handed over ₦42.5 million to a 70-year-old widow, Mrs. Margret Taye Odofin, who was defrauded by suspected scammers.

The recovery was made by the Kaduna Zonal Directorate of the EFCC, following an extensive investigation into a fraud case involving over ₦47 million.

According to reports, Mrs. Odofin had petitioned the EFCC after losing her life savings to a fraudulent investment scheme operated by a syndicate. Acting swiftly, investigators traced and recovered a substantial portion of the funds, which were formally returned to her through a bank draft presentation at the EFCC office in Kaduna.

Presenting the cheque, the EFCC Zonal Director commended the widow’s courage for reporting the crime rather than giving up, adding that the Commission remains committed to protecting vulnerable Nigerians from economic exploitation.

“The EFCC will always stand for justice, transparency, and the protection of citizens against fraudsters,” the official stated.

Overcome with emotion, Mrs. Odofin thanked the anti-graft agency for restoring her hope and life savings, describing the recovery as a “miracle I never thought possible.”

This act of restitution has drawn widespread praise on social media, with many Nigerians hailing the EFCC for showing empathy and proving that justice still works for the common person.
