Cautions Banks Against Revealing Investigation Activities.
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has called on
compliance officers of banks across the country to desist from unauthorized
disclosure of EFCC’s investigation activities and request from banks to their
customers.
Executive Chairman of the commission, Ola Olukoyede, made
this declaration during a meeting with compliance officers of banks in Ibadan,
the Oyo state capital.
Olukoyede, who spoke through the Acting Zonal Director of
the Ibadan Zonal Command of EFCC, ACE I Hauwa Garba Ringim, said that the
commission is aware that some compliance officers are giving some information
to customers.

the banking sector in Nigeria
The commission boss stressed that such an act is posing
considerable challenges and concerns to the commission.
According to him, the EFCC is aware of the fact that
compliance officers give information to their clients regarding ‘letters of
investigation activities’ written to the banks from the EFCC.
