Abstract
This study examine the success and Challenges of EFCC in anti-corruption crusade in Nigeria. In this paper we examine the EFCC effort in anti-corruption crusuade with more concerns on public sector and political leaders. Examination of the literature shows that though the commission was unable to win majority of its cases due to its incompetence in its investigation and presentation of corruption cases before the court of justice, yet EFCC has secured a number of cases and recovered billions of Naira from corrupt officials in Nigeria. The study concludes by recommending the need for EFCC to be more sophisticated and honest in its investigation and prosecution of corruption cases.
