1. As i said yesterday, i may not be able to receive and diligently explore all cases in my dm and we know some banks may prove difficult in helping so i will give a thread on how to petition EFCC directly.
It is easy and mostly effective.
Fraudulent vendors may be apprehended
2. ENSURE THAT YOUR LETTER IS PROPERLY ADDRESSED
All petitions to the EFCC must be addressed to The Executive Chairman Of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
5, Fomella Street, off Adetokunbo Ademola Crescent, Wuse 2, Abuja.
3. If you are submitting your petition at any of the 9 zonal offices, then the petition would be addressed as ‘Through the Head of
Operations (insert zone)”.
4. For example a Petition through Lagos Zonal office will be addressed to:
The Executive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
Through the Head of Operations Lagos
No. 15A, Awolowo Road,
Ikoyi, Lagos.
5. You petition should provide Clear information about your case, I would recommend you that subject of your letter should be a one-line summary of the issue. For example: "PETITION AGAINST MR XYZ FOR DEFRAUDING MRS ABC of the Sum of for Professional exam and Visa Processing fee.
6. Your petition should contain factual and concise details of the transaction and what transpired (include the date, place, name, address and contact info of the parties involved), it helps so that whoever is reading your petition can clearly understand the chain of events
7. PROVIDE EVIDENCE
When writing a petition, you should include supporting documents, this will help determine if the EFFC will investigate and prosecute the case. The Evidence you provide should show that a fraudulent act was perpetrated on
you or your organisation.
8. You can attach receipts, Bank Transaction receipts, pictures and other documents showing that you have been defrauded.
Do not file a petition if you do not have all the facts and also do not send malicious false petitions, it could land you in big trouble.
9. SUBMIT YOUR PETITION
It is recommended for the Petitioner to type,Sign and date the Petition. Also, include your contact phone number and email address so that the EFCC can reach you for Further clarification.
10. Submit your petition at the EFCC head office in Abuja or the Zonal office closest to you.
There are Zonal offices in Borno, Edo, Enugu, Gombe, Ibadan, Kaduna, Kano, Lagos, Rivers. Check the EFCC website for the Zonal office closest to you.
11. Oh by the way, i have had several reports on my twitter account.
My account has been restricted.
This meins that the fraudsters are here in our midst watching and looking.
Very sad to learn of the death of @OkporEmeka who died in his sleep
He supported all I ever did
He came my brother’s event early, introduced himself to me and said he wanted to discuss something with me later. We never discussed later (which i now regret)
I will use him as my dp for the week and try to reach his family.
I don’t ever forget loyalty
He was one of the first to show up and offered his support. Felt so touched.
