The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has urged students across Nigeria to stay away from harmful uses of the internet, emphasizing that such activities can lead to problems and are often illegal.
This message was shared during a gathering in Lagos on Friday, June 20, 2025, with students from the International Relations Department of Obafemi Awolowo University in Osun State, who were visiting the EFCC for an educational experience.
Michael Nzekwe, the EFCC Zonal Director, spoke to the students and encouraged them to think creatively and find innovative ways to showcase their talents.
