The EFCC and National Lottery Regulatory Commission have
signed a Memorandum of Understanding to strengthen the
fight against illegal lottery operators in the country.
At the event in Abuja, the Chairman of the EFCC, Mr. Ibrahim
Larmode, said with the agreement, the days of illegal lottery
operations were numbered.
The EFCC Chairman also called on other government agencies
to key into such collaboration in the interest of national
development.
Earlier, the Director General of the National Lottery Regulatory
Commission, Mr. Adolphus Ekpe, said the collaboration with
EFCC would ensure proper repositioning of the regulatory
agency.
Mr. Ekpe gave an assurance that the Commission would not
relent in its effort towards generating funds for national
development.
