...Solicitations for Gratification
The Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission, EFCC wishes to alert the general public about the activities of
some unscrupulous elements who have opened fake facebook accounts in the name
of the Acting Chairman of the Commission, Ibrahim Mustafa Magu. The two accounts:
https://www.facebook.com/ibrahimmustafa.magu
and https://www.facebook.com/magu.ibrahim.77 have become platform for various
unwholesome activities including solicitation for gratification and influence
peddling using the name of the EFCC boss.
The public is warned not to respond
to any request for friendship and other demands in the name of Magu as the
accounts do not belong to him.
Also the Commission warns the public
to be mindful of telephone calls by persons claiming to be acting on behalf of
the Acting Chairman and soliciting for gratification. Such calls/persons should
be reported to the EFCC or the nearest police station.
The Commission has consistently maintained
that it does not solicit money or gratification of any sort to carry out its
statutory duties.
The general public is by this
release, enjoined to be vigilant and help in unmasking these unscrupulous elements
who are bent of soiling the reputation of Magu and the EFCC.
For the benefit of the public, the
Commission’s official facebook account is https://www.facebook.com/officialefcc.
The Commission can also be reached on any of the following hotlines:
234-9-9044751 or 234-9-9044752 or by email to info@efccnigeria.org
