The EFCC Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, announced this at the 2024 EFCC Rewards and Recognition Awards in Abuja yesterday.
Salisu was killed by a suspected internet fraudster in Anambra State.
The Assistant Superintendent of the EFCC was shot dead by a suspected internet fraudster, Joshua Ikechukwu, while on a legitimate duty on January 17.
Olukoyede also vowed that justice would be ensured as Salisu would be made to face the wrath of the law.
He said the commission would do everything possible to ensure that the labour of those who lost their lives in the course of duty was rewarded.
The EFCC boss said the commission would not forget the families of gallant officers who lost their lives.
He said the commission would not relent in its crusade against financial crimes in the country in spite of challenges and oppositions facing it.
âWe are not going to relent in our fight against financial crimes in Nigeria.
âSo, I want to encourage you and I want to let you know that for every officer who has lost his life in the line of duty or every officer who has been fatally injured in the line of duty, we are not going to forget.
âIâd like to announce in honor of our gallant officer who has passed on that I am going to direct that the administrative building of EFCC Academy, Karu should be named after Aminu Salisu,â he said.
He said he was going to send a proposal to the management that everyone who lost their lives or fatally injured should be honoured.
âThose who have gone with great legacy endowment in honor of them, those who have been injured, we are no longer going to leave them alone. I will not leave them alone.
âWe will not leave their families alone. We will do everything possible to support them and to support their families,â he said.
He also commended the staff who won different awards, urging them not to relent in their efforts to rid the nation of financial crimes.
âToday is one of the most defining moments in the annals of our agency.
âWe are here together to honour officers who have done well in the last year.
â We are proud of you all for your commitment to the core values of the EFCC, which is professionalism, courage and integrity.
Your collective efforts ensure that the commission retains its position as the most effective anti-corruption agency in Nigeria.
âWe actually broke new brands in terms of records and convictions in 2024.
âIn the future, we can look back and recall that 2024 is the year our agency made history with the single largest property confiscated and the single largest arrests in an operation in Nigeria,â he said.
