The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has said that no major fraud is committed in the banking sector without the connivance of bank officials. The claim was made by Mr. Michael Nzekwe, the Zonal Commander of the Ilorin Zonal Command of EFCC, during a meeting held with banks’ compliance officers from Kwara and Kogi States in Ilorin.

Nzekwe, who urged financial institutions and compliance officers to be diligent and avoid being complicit in financial practices, noted that they play a crucial role in the fight against economic and financial crimes. The EFCC zonal commander also asked bank officials to take the issue of “know your customer (KYC)” and “know your customer’s business (KYCB)” seriously as it would help to keep fraudulent customers at bay. He said; “We invited you here today to nourish our existing relationship, educate ourselves on the new trends in cybercrime and seek areas of further collaboration as stakeholders in the fight against economic and financial crimes in Nigeria. “We advise that as bankers, you carry out due diligence and know your customers. By doing this, you save yourselves from trouble and make our job easier. “There is no major fraud, especially money laundering, that is ever committed without the connivance of bank officials.” Nzekwe also encouraged the bankers to share necessary information and report suspicious transactions to the commission.

“Love fades without money; money is my major priority” – Charity Nnaji

Popular Nollywood star, Charity Nnaji has said that her love for a man is determined by how wealthy he is.

Charity Nnaji money love fades

The movie star said this while speaking in an interview with Punch Saturday Beats. She said that when it comes to her relationship, love takes the backseat while money takes the front. Love, she says, fades when there is no money. “Money is my major priority. Even if I don’t love the person and he has money, I would start loving the person with time. However, if the person does not have money, I would start hating the person with time. The love will fade,” she said.

Charity also spoke on how men perceive some women as being entitled because they rely on their man to take care of their needs. She said: “I don’t understand why a man would just walk up to a lady like that. Does the man think the lady just woke up one day and became beautiful? Someone went out of his way to buy those things that made her look beautiful. If the man feels that he can get to her without contributing to her needs, how does that sound? “Even the Bible says that God so loved the world and gave out His son. God did not receive but He gave. That means that if one loves another, that person must give. The only way to prove love is by giving. If someone says he loves me and he cannot give me money, that love is questionable.” When asked whether she’s open to advances from her fans, she said: “The manner of approach is what I consider when it comes to advances from fans. If any fan introduces himself properly, I may choose to give him my contact (number). If I am not convinced, then there is no point. We can just exchange pleasantries and go our different ways.”
