The Corporate Affairs Commission has called on Nigerians to ignore messages on free registration of business names and companies.
The Commission gave this warning in a statement via X, formerly Twitter on Tuesday, noting that such messages would never come from them.
“Please, disregard any SMS or WhatsApp message asking you to enrol for free CAC registration, as it is not from us! Thank you,” CAC posted.
Meanwhile, the Lagos Office of the Corporate Affairs Commission played host on Monday to the Registrar General/CEO of the Commission, Hussaini Ishaq Magaji, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria.
The Registrar General, who came to Lagos on an official engagement, decided to visit the state office of CAC in continuation of his interactive meetings with staff.
Accompanied by the Head of Public Affairs/Deputy Director, Dominic O. Inyang, the CAC boss was received on arrival by the Head of Lagos Office/Assistant Director, Mabuyaku Oritsematosan Joan, who took him around the facilities at the office.
The Registrar-General interfaced with members of staff and entertained their complaints, challenges and suggestions.
Magaji then promised them of a prompt response to the issues for improved productivity.
He noted that the visit will give the opportunity to hear firsthand their challenges and experiences on the job and provide immediate solutions where possible.
