The anti-graft agency voiced grave worry over the portrayal of its agents in such works in a statement released on Monday through X.
In a statement, the EFCC stated that it was once again forced to issue a warning to social workers and skit creators to stop using the commission’s operating tools in an irresponsible and illegal manner.
The commission specifically objected to how its agents were portrayed in the movie, calling it a “caricature of the operational etiquette of the EFCC.”
According to the commission, the film presents an unflattering portrayal of purported operatives of the commission, and terrorizing “suspects” is not only disgusting but also suggests a purposeful effort to damage the EFCC’s reputation.
“EFCC operators are not bullies,” the organization declared. They are educated to be sophisticated, contemporary law enforcement agents who possess a wealth of civility, decency, and regard for the public, especially those who may be suspected in financial and economic crimes.
As a result, the commission urged material providers once more to “desist from unauthorised use of the accoutrements of the Commission.”
