Salihu said yesterday  during a road walk by the Commission in Port Harcourt   to commemorate  the 2018 United Nation’s Anti-Corruption Day that before now the yearly recovery of the Commission  had not exceeded N400 million, but that the increase in the fund recovery was not what to celebrate due to rising crime in the country. 

He added that the commission also recovered several houses which were used to perpetuate crimes.
