Ola Olukoyede, executive chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission , says the agency has plans to rehabilitate convicted internet fraudsters with lesser sentences.
“We have a plan to rehabilitate convicted internet fraudsters with lesser sentences. The plan is to work with the correctional centre to make them useful and more productive in society,” the EFCC boss said. “When you think deeply, that tag ‘ex-convict’ is not a good thing. You can never tell where you would find yourself tomorrow and they would want to profile you and discover that you are an ex-convict,” Olukoyede said.
Speaking earlier, Marshal said the visit was to build synergy with the EFCC in its fight against cybercrimes across Nigerian university campuses.
