Uwujaren added that the Public Affairs Department of the Commission is adequately equipped to work with motion picture practitioners desirous of partnering with the Commission in using films and skits to educate the public, especially the youth on the dangers of economic and financial crimes. “Anyone found acting contrary to this advisory shall henceforth be treated as an impersonator and dealt with accordingly,” he added.All rights reserved.
