Twitter users have trolled the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for one of their tweets which they did not find very funny at all.
The anti-graft agency made a tweet affirming its mandate to investigate corruption in Nigeria.
The tweet read: "#TheEagle will get you anywhere, anytime. #SayNoToCorruption." The tweet was accompanied by a picture that ended with the catchphrase, "the eagle knows your area."

Instead of Nigerians to relate with the tweet, they took offense with the commission as many of them felt they were not doing their jobs well.
Burning river exclaimed, "What is this nitori olorun? Wack to say the least."
Charles said: "Very poor lines. Sounds like a scam"

I seriously think the name should be changed to 'Anti-Yahoo boys Squad' AYBS.

All you do is go after low ranking Yahoo boys and then you pride yourself on it.
That way, we know who you are after. #AYBS
