Chairman, Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Abdulrasheed Bawa, yesterday said EFCC would continue to launch offensives against internet fraudsters and other criminals.
He said this in Abuja during the grand finale of Girls in ICT ConnectLive Season 6.
Bawa, represented by Head of Enlightenment and Reorientation Unit, EFCC, Aisha Mohammed, said: “Internet fraud shrinks the thinking space for positive engagements and its criminality is the death knell of originality.
“Girls in ICT should make a difference in this respect and challenge fraudulent actors on the net by the strength of your innovation.
‘’I’m eager to see a Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Steve Jobs and others like them produced from among you girls in ICT.”
Chairman, National Drugs and Law Enforcement Agency, Buba Marwa, represented by Nweke Angela Oluchi, said: “14.5m Nigerians between the ages of 15 and 40 engage in drugs, and out of every four, one is a woman”.
