The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has exposed the operations of 58 unregistered companies masquerading as investment platforms and defrauding unsuspecting Nigerians of their hard-earned money.
EFCC’s spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, disclosed this yesterday in Abuja, stating that the action aligns with the commission’s commitment to cleansing the country’s financial sector and protecting the investing public from fraudulent schemes.
According to Oyewale, the implicated companies are not registered with the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) or the Security and Exchange Commission (SEC). He noted that both regulatory bodies, in separate communications with the EFCC, confirmed that the companies have no official registration with them.
Oyewale revealed that the EFCC has filed charges against many of the identified companies, with five securing convictions, another five pleading guilty but awaiting a review of facts, while the remaining cases are at various stages of arraignment.
