Conclusion
Do not be misled. Having a SCUML certificate is important, but it does not mean EFCC cannot come after you. Some people intend to get SCUML so they can go ahead to embezzle or launder funds. These people should note that even with your SCUML certificate, the EFCC eagle is watching you closely.
Getting SCUML shows you have taken a step toward compliance, not that the EFCC has cleared your business to operate
