The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC has dismissed insinuations in a section of the media that the official X (formerly Twitter) account of the Commission has been hacked and hijacked by unknown individuals.
In a statement by its spokesperson Dele Oyewale, made available to Channel Network Afrique, the commission indicated that the claims are false and misleading.
Oyewale noted that, contrary to such unfounded claims, the Commission’s official X account has not been compromised in any way. While attempting to update certain information on the Commission’s biography on the app, a technical glitch occurred. This issue was promptly reported to the X Support Team and the process of restoring the account is now in its final stages.
“The EFCC’s official X account will be fully functional soon and we appreciate the understanding of all our stakeholders during this period.”
“All other verified channels of communication of the Commission are still available for our regular news and information.”
