EFCC Officer Participating in Matchmaking Program is a Dismissed Employee

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has distanced itself from a matchmaking program featuring a man who posed as one of its officers. The individual, Olakunle Alex Folarin, was actually a dismissed staff member of the commission.

Folarin had been terminated from his position due to certificate forgery and was working as a driver at the Ibadan Zonal Directorate. EFCC's Executive Chairman, Mr. Ola Olukoyede, has ordered his arrest for retaining commission properties, such as an identity card, which he was required to surrender upon his dismissal. The commission warned the public not to associate Folarin's actions with the EFCC and to be cautious of such fraudulent schemes.
