Onyeledo ,when he led  officials of the Fellowship  on a Courtesy Visit to the Enugu Zonal Command of the EFCC .  He stressed that,  the activities of the EFCC,  over the years,  have helped the country and the PFN  was ready to collaborate with the Commission in all its  activities geared towards  fighting corruption “and  curb the menace of cyber crimes and other financial crimes by telling our members the tricks of fraudsters  so that they will not be defrauded”.

According acting  Head,  Media & Publicity, EFCC,Mr. Dele Oyewale,” he further disclosed that PFN was desirous of maintaining a good relationship with institutions of government, including the EFCC, and sued for more collaboration with the Commission.  He also sought guidance on how  the certificate of the Special Control Unit Against Money Laundering, SCUML, could be obtained by some of his members”. 

In his  response, the Enugu Zonal Commander of the Commission,  Assistant Commander of the EFCC,  ACE 1 Aliyu Nuhu Naibi,   thanked Onyeledo, for the visit and  stressed that both  Christianity and Islam are religions of peace for the good of humanity. “I noticed the calmness and simplicity of your Fellowship and it is commendable.  Please, tell your members that the SCUML certificate is free and we operate an open door policy at all times”, he said.
