Speaking on Channels TV’s Morning Brief ,Dele Oyewale, the spokesperson of the EFCC, said the anti-graft agency has been receiving numerous calls from Nigerians seeking information and remedies regarding CBEX.
He said before the public outcry and calls, EFCC had profiled the platform and alerted Nigerians about potential ponzi schemes.
“We were not waiting for Nigerians to call us before we started our work, of course, we have been working
“We were not beaten by what actually happened. Our dragnet is wide, our intelligence is very effective, and we were tracking that digital trading platform.
“We were tracking it, we profiled quite a number of things concerning the platform. You will recall that March 11th this year, the executive chairman of the EFCC, Mr. Ola Olukoyede, had call to instruct us to alert Nigerians.”
The spokesperson recalled that about 58 ponzi scheme companies were listed by the commission in March for Nigerians to be wary of.
“That shows that we are proactive and we have our hands on what is happening. So concerning this investigation, we were on it, it’s not that we didn’t know
“We’ve been alerting Nigerians about ways and means how to separate themselves from this kind of shenanigans.
“Before the calls came, we were working, while the calls are coming, we are working; And even after the calls, we are still working.
“The essential thing is that, of course, we are going to recall some of the things that Nigerians should be looking out for, you know, concerning this kind of investment schemes and all of that.”

Oyewale further assured investors that their money will be recovered, though it may take time.
“Everything I’m saying is this kind of thing could have been averted.
“Be it as it may, it was not averted, we are not going to throw our hands out helplessly and say that there’s nothing EFCC can do about it.
“We are more responsible and professional than that. We have spread out our wings by talking to Interpol and the necessary agencies across the world to be able to bring all the actors to book, and investors will have their money back.”
Oyewale said the investments might not be recovered in the short term, but EFCC will not allow investors to lose their money.
