The NFIU is the Nigerian arm of the global financial intelligence units and its overarching objectives is to ensure that Nigeria complies with international standards on combating money laundry, and financing of terrorism and weapons of mass destruction. HamanTukur, who led a delegation of a broad spectrum of management staff of NFIU to NCC, said even when NCC had to impose sanction, it did so with the most conscientiousness of honor, "with its integrity intact", and it is on record that NCC has imposed the highest level of financial sanction than any regulatory authority in Nigeria. Modibbo HammanTukur, the Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU) made this declaration yesterday (July 17, 2019) when he paid a courtesy call on the Management of NCC at the Commission's head office in Abuja.
