This is a scam, and we urge members of the public to disregard the message and refrain from calling the posted number or any numbers associated with the message

The All Progressives Congress, APC, has warned Nigerians to beware of fake empowerment message or calls whereby suspected fraudsters are currently making and requesting for citizens’ bank details in order to receive a so-called empowerment fund.
Speaking via a press statement signed by Reuben Morka, the national publicity secretary of APC, on Tuesday, the ruling political party said, “It wishes to alert the general public to a scam message being circulated by suspected fraudsters, requesting banking details for payment of “N85,000 from Bola Tinubu empowerment” and asking interested persons to call 🚫07078309083🚫❕
“This is a scam, and we urge members of the public to disregard the message and refrain from calling the posted number or any numbers associated with the message”.
APC called on relevant security agencies to urgently identify and bring the perpetrators to justice.
