In addition, Chidoka urged Bawa to purge the commission of the Police analogue and brute force mentality.
Stressing that technology will make Bawa’s team distinct, especially in corruption prevention.
“Technology will make your investigating team productive and help in preventing corruption.”
Further, Chidoka who became Corps Marshal in 2007 at the age of 35 years, noted that Bawa's case may be different since he is from within the EFCC organisation.
Good investigating agencies, Chidoka counselled, do not arrest people and start looking for evidence, but urged him to combine the boldness of Nuhu Ribadu and the meticulousness of DIG Ibrahim Lamorde as his guide.
