The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has issued a strong warning to skit makers and others against the unauthorized use of their official kits in any form of content creation. The announcement, made via Nigerian Stories’ official X handle, cautions individuals against impersonating or misrepresenting the anti-graft agency in skits or media productions without approval.
The EFCC emphasized that the use of its branded attire or logos without consent is not only misleading but also constitutes a violation of the law. This warning comes as the agency continues to combat rising cases of fraudulent impersonation, which could be further fueled by unapproved skits depicting EFCC operations.
As the popularity of online skits grows, the EFCC’s statement serves as a reminder to creators to act responsibly and avoid actions that could undermine public trust in the agency’s work. The commission warned that legal action would be taken against anyone found guilty of misusing its image or identity.
