They target the vulnerable, the optimistic, and the simply unsuspecting, leaving behind a trail of shattered lives, depleted pensions, and broken trust. This is not just a financial crime; it is a social menace that erodes public confidence in our entire financial system,\u201d Agama said.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">He stressed that while the SEC can identify regulatory breaches, effective prosecution requires the investigative and enforcement powers of the police.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThis is where our authority, as the SEC, meets its necessary complement: your power, your reach, and your mandate. The Nigeria Police Force is the primary law enforcement agency with the national presence, the investigative muscle, and the constitutional authority to track, apprehend, and bring these criminals to justice,\u201d he said.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Agama noted that scammers currently exploit \u201ca gap, a seam between identification and enforcement,\u201d adding, \u201cToday, we aim to close that gap permanently.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">To achieve this, he proposed a robust and institutionalised collaboration built on joint intelligence and operations, capacity building and knowledge transfer, streamlined enforcement processes, and a national public awareness campaign.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">He also advocated the creation of a dedicated SEC\u2013NPF team combining market intelligence, forensic accounting expertise, and police investigative capabilities to serve as a rapid-response unit against emerging frauds.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition, the SEC chief sought the approval of the Inspector-General to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Cyber Security Unit of the Police Force to ensure safer cyberspace for Nigerians.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cMr. Inspector General, the fight against financial crime is a fight for the soul of our economy. It is a fight for the widow who has lost her savings, the youth lured by fake crypto promises, and the retiree seeking a safe return. The SEC cannot win this fight alone. The Police should not have to decipher these complex schemes without specialist support. Together, however, we form an impenetrable shield,\u201d Agama said.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">He added, \u201cLet this meeting be remembered as the day the two guardians of Nigeria\u2019s safety the safety of our streets and the safety of our savings joined hands. Let us send a clear, unequivocal message to every scammer, from the dusty streets to the dark web: Your time is up. Nigeria\u2019s investors are now under our combined protection.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Responding, Inspector-General of Police Kayode Egbetokun assured the SEC of the Police Force\u2019s readiness to collaborate fully and strengthen enforcement efforts to achieve the Commission\u2019s objectives.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cYour role in the Securities and Exchange Commission is very crucial to the Nigerian Economy, and with our Supervision and Support from the government, we will ensure economic recovery and growth,\u201d Egbetokun said.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">He noted that strengthening the police unit attached to the SEC would significantly enhance enforcement, adding, \u201cIf the police unit in SEC is strengthened, it is going to make so much impact in your enforcement drive.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Inspector-General also congratulated the Commission on achieving a \u20a6100 trillion market capitalisation milestone, describing it as a major boost for economic growth and development.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThat is a very huge one, and on behalf of the entire police force, i congratulate you on this great achievement. l am happy to also hear from you that you are ready to strengthen the police enforcement unit that are attached to the SEC. on this note, I approve the collaboration with the Cyber Security Centre of the NPF,\u201d he said.<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Daniel Adaji The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) have agreed to form a strategic alliance to crack down on illegal investment schemes, including&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":123630,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-124996","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
