The Executive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ola Olukoyede, has stated that the Commission will enhance its collaboration with the Citizen and Leadership Training Centre (CLTC), especially on youth enlightenment against internet fraud.

He stated this in Abuja recently when the Director General of the Center, Rinsola Abiola, and her management team paid him a courtesy visit at the Commission’s headquarters.

Olukoyede, who noted that the EFCC has a long-standing relationship with the Center, disclosed that he was ready to leverage more on it in the fight against internet fraud and in raising good leaders of tomorrow.

“We have a long-standing relationship with you. We are ready to build on that. For us here, in whatever we do, excellence is top priority, and I believe your services will continue to be improved upon.

“I appreciate your desire for collaboration in the area of enlightenment in schools because we live in a society where peer pressure is a serious trend, with often bad orientation from home, so there is a need to go back to the value of letting our people know that integrity pays.

“We will continue to collaborate with you so that we can push this. We have to let people know the evils of financial crimes.

“If we can dwell on prevention, it will save us a whole lot.

“We have established integrity clubs in secondary schools already, and I will direct you to work with our team to see areas we can collaborate,” he said

Speaking further, he stated that the Commission was building a cybercrime center that would address issues of internet fraud holistically.

Abiola, in her remarks, applauded Olukoyede for his giant strides and successes in the fight against corruption, economic and financial crimes, noting that the mandate of CLTC aligns with that of the EFCC.

“EFCC is one of our strategic partners. Thank you for allowing us to train your cadets. 

“I want to say that the EFCC is a very responsible organization, and I commend you for showing us what is possible with good leadership and staff development. We have a mandate to build and train to correct.

“Part of my mandate as the Director General is to directly impact our young people, and I am positive that you are our strategic partner.
