The Inter-Governmental Action Group against Money Laundering in West Africa (GIABA) in collaboration with the Journalists Network against Money Laundering/Terrorist Financing, Nigeria Chapter on Thursday 30th June started a 2-day training workshop for journalists in Nigeria on the scope of Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing in West Africa.

The aim of the workshop, held at Nevilla Hotel, Kaduna State, Nigeria, was to build the capacity of media practitioners to better report money laundering and terrorist financing activities on the West African sub-region and beyond.

The 2-day event is designed to acquaint the media personnel about regional initiatives on Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) framework, especially the mandate of GIABA and to improve the network among journalists that would promote proper information dissemination on AML/CFT regimes.

The Inter-Governmental Action Group against Money Laundering in West Africa (GIABA)  sponsor of the workshop, noted that transnational organized crimes in particular money laundering and the financing of terrorism pose serious threat to global peace and security thereby undermines sustainable development by eroding social and human capital and threatening social and political stability.

GIABA is a specialised institution of ECOWAS as well as Financial Action Task Force (FATF)–Styled Regional Body established by the Authority of Heads of State and Government of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) in the year 2000 with the mandate to protect the national economies and financial systems of member States from the laundering of proceeds of crimes.
It is expected that the workshop will lead to increase in the pool of highly trained journalists with in-depth knowledge about financial and economic crimes and improved information sharing and dissemination about money laundering and terrorist financing in the country.

  17. I believe everything said was actually very logical. But, what about this?
    what if you typed a catchier title? I mean, I don't wish to tell you how to run your website, but suppose you added something that grabbed people's attention?
    I mean "GIABA trains Nigerian anti-money laundering advocates" is kinda plain.
    You should look at Yahoo's home page and note how they create article titles to grab people to click. You might add a video or a picture or two to grab people interested about everything've written.
    Just my opinion, it could bring your website a
    little bit more interesting.

  18. I wanted to put you a little observation to give
    many thanks once again on the pleasing strategies you have
    shared on this page. This is certainly incredibly open-handed of you in giving without restraint what exactly a lot of folks might
    have supplied for an e book to help with making some dough for themselves,
    specifically now that you could possibly have done it
    in case you decided. These concepts as well acted to provide a easy way to know that some people have the
    same keenness just as my personal own to see much more regarding this
    condition. I think there are a lot more fun occasions in the future for many who looked at g post.
