Ibinabo who represented the Director SCUML, Daniel Isei, advised real estate operators to be law abiding and avoid being used by corrupt politicians in syphoning the nation’s resources.

“I urged you to always conduct due diligence, and the principle of Know Your Customers, KYC before consummating any transaction”, she said.

She identified the sector’s vulnerabilities to include, activities of unlicensed operators due to weak entry controls, cash transactions , and use of third parties .

She however charged the operators not to allow themselves to be used by corrupt elements in perpetrating crimes involving money laundering.

Similarly, Mr. Sunji Audu, Head, SCUML, Port Harcourt Command, enlightened the operators on the need to build the capacity of their staff and appoint Compliance Officers in line with provisions of the Money Laundering Act, 2022.

Abubakar Bello of the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit, NFIU, enlightened the participants on how to identify and report suspicious transactions to the NFIU.

“All real estate agents must report every suspicious financial transaction to the NFIU immediately the transactions are consummated”, he said

He warned that not reporting of such activities or transactions attracts sanctions or penalties.
