The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on Tuesday noted that “judgment shall start from the house of God”.
The Commission shared the thought via a post on X, while announcing its 164th edition of EFCC Connect tagged “Fighting Economic and Financial Crimes in the House of God”.
However, the Bible passage lifted from 1 Peter 4:17, generated mixed reactions among Nigerians who trooped to the comment section.
Some of the netizens who reacted to the message disagreed with the anti-graft agency and urged it to look elsewhere.
Others urged EFCC to first purge itself of corrupt practices before tackling others.
An X user identified as @Jiro Dezi wrote: “From efcc office first.”
Another netizen, @Big Dada said: “You have no jurisdiction to say such thing, when your own judgement favors the corrupt politicians looting the economy, shame on you.”
@SMARTEk2050 added: “No judgement of EFCC should start from the house of governments and public offices first. Allow Gods judgment to start from HIS own house”.
@Blacklord Plus Two said, “You are not in position to judge the house of God,” says .
While another Nigerian identified as Tache wrote: “Eagle wey dey look one direction”.
