EFCC office
June 21, 2023
The attention of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has been drawn to the activities of content creators, movies and skit producers who use EFCC-branded Jackets, symbols, insignia and other accoutrements without authorization.
The Commission wishes to notify the public that the use of the EFCC brand in movies without authorization is illegal.
While the Commission appreciate the desire by some operators in the creative sector to produce movies/skits with plots around economic and financial crimes, it is incumbent on such operators to seek the Commission’s authorization, including vetting of scenes which purport to depict the operations of the Commission, to ensure that false or misleading messages are not passed to the public.
Anyone found acting contrary to this advisory shall henceforth be treated as an impersonator and dealt with accordingly.
