In response to the public outcry and speculations of unfair treatment, the head of EFCC’s media unit, Dele Oyewale, clarified that individuals who were seen abusing the naira before the establishment of the Special Task Force would not face prosecution.

Oyewale emphasized that the commission would only pursue cases involving currency abuse that occurred after February 7, 2024.

“Old videos being exhumed and flying around for the attention of the commission are noted as the commission is sensitive to the fact that its Special Task Force against Naira Abuse and Dollarization of the economy commenced operations on February 7, 2024,” Oyewale stated in a Sunday statement.
