 Choose Digital Skills over Fraud- Olukoyede Charges Students in Enugu


The Executive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC,  Mr. Ola Olukoyede has urged students in Enugu State to shun internet fraud, focus on their studies and acquire digital skills that will secure their future.


He gave this charge recently at the Institute of Management and Technology, IMT and New Heaven Community Secondary School in Enugu State during an engagement with the students as part of the Commission’s prevention mandate.


Speaking at the IMT Enugu, the Executive Chairman, who was represented by Superintendent of the EFCC, SE Paul Ikpor, Head, Public Affairs Department, Enugu Zonal Directorate of the EFCC, warned the students that involvement in internet fraud and other cyber-related fraud may appear attractive in the short term but ultimately leads to destruction of careers, reputations and personal freedom. “Cybercrime is a criminal offence that attracts severe legal consequences.  Many young people who engage in internet fraud often end up facing arrest, prosecution and possible imprisonment, thereby truncating their dreams and bringing hardship to their families”, he said.


While enjoining the undergraduates to learn digital skills, Olukoyede said that hard work and skill acquisition remain the surest path to lasting success, urging students to resist peer pressure and the temptation of quick illegal wealth. “Concentrate on your education and develop productive skills that can help you build legitimate careers in the rapidly growing technology sector. You can explore opportunities in areas like software development, cybersecurity, digital marketing, graphic design and other information technology fields that are in high demand globally”, he said.


At New Heaven Community Secondary School, the EFCC boss hammered on building a culture of integrity. He also urged the pupils to remain focused on their studies, embrace innovation and utilize technology as a tool for development rather than criminality.


“Integrity remains one of the most important values for young people who aspire to lead in the future. Building a culture of honesty and accountability at an early stage in life will help you develop into responsible citizens capable of contributing positively to national development”, he said.


While describing criminal activities especially internet fraud as “the faster form of self-destruction”, he reminded the pupils that they represent the next generation of leaders and must therefore begin early to cultivate values of integrity, responsibility and respect for the law. “We are therefore calling on you to become ambassadors of integrity within your schools and your communities by rejecting internet fraud and embracing hard work, discipline and lawful means of success”, he said.
