EFCC Issues Stern Warning to Skit Makers Over Caricatures of Its Agency in Comedy Videos

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC has released a statement condemning the unauthorised use of its operational gear in comedy skits.

This is coming following the resurgence of an old video titled “EFCC and Army Wahala” across social media platforms.

In a statement on Monday via X, the anti-graft agency expressed deep concern over the misrepresentation of its operatives in such productions.

“This, once again, compels the EFCC to reiterate its warning to skit makers and other social workers to desist from using the operational accoutrements of the commission illegally and irresponsibly,” the statement read.

The commission took particular issue with the portrayal of its agents in the video, describing it as a “caricature of the operational etiquette of the EFCC.

”The commission stated that the video depicts a shameful characterisation of supposed operatives of the commission, and unleashing terror on “suspects” is not only embarrassing but indicative of a deliberate attempt to cast shadows on the image of the EFCC.

The commission hence issued a stern warning to content creators, stating, “Skit makers are warned again to desist from unauthorised use of the accoutrements of the Commission.”
