The Real Estate Developers Association of Nigeria (REDAN), has commended the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), for its strides in combating money laundering and recovery of 753 duplexes and other apartments in the Lokogoma District of Abuja.

This commendation was given in Abuja by the President and Chairman of Council of REDAN, Mr. Akintoye Adeoye, in a letter addressed to President Bola Tinubu, a copy of which was made available to the EFCC.

Adeoye, pointed out that the Commission was playing vital roles in combating economic crimes, money laundering and terrorism financing within the real estate sector and specifically lauded the EFCC’s Chairman, Mr. Ola Olukoyede, for driving all the numerous achievements of the Commission in 2024.

“REDAN acknowledges the vital role of the EFCC in combating economic crimes, money laundering and terrorism financing within the real estate sector.  These efforts are crucial to maintaining the integrity of our industry, ensuring it serves as a catalyst for national development rather than a haven for unscrupulous activities”, he said.
