Skitmakers Must Stop Portraying Us As Bullies – EFCC

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has come out to warn skit makers and other content creators to desist from portraying its operatives as bullies by using the operational identities of the Commission illegally and irresponsibly.

The commission recently reacted to the viral video code-named, “EFCC and Army Wahala”, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to EFCC, the video is clearly a wrong representation of the operational etiquette of the commission, and the shameful characterisation of supposed operatives of the EFCC in it unleashing terror on suspects is very embarrassing.

The commission added that the clip is surely a deliberate attempt to cast shadows on the image of the EFCC, and that will not be tolerated.

It read, “Operatives of the EFCC are not bullies. They are trained as refined modern law enforcement officers rich in decency, civility and respect for members of the public, including suspects of economic and financial crimes.

Skit makers are warned again to desist from unauthorized use of the identities of the EFCC to ply their trade. The Commission will not hesitate to bring to book anyone caught displaying its operational identities for any engagement.”

WOW.
