Group Advises against Impersonation

A non-government organisation (NGO),  Patriotic Lords Initiative for Justice (PLIJ) has urged  members of the public who are not registered  members of the organisation  against impersonation and  the use of its name and logo for fraudulent activities.

It said  that it values it name and members, hence those who are not “our members should desist from using it name for whatever reasons or parading themselves as our members.”

In a press release made available to Thisday,

The Public Relations Officer of the group,  Mr Onucheyo Nasir, in a press release,  said: “ We place high premium on our members. We are an NGO with global affiliation and we would not allow  anybody who is not our member to drag our name into the mud.”

Nasir said that the denouncement became necessary as a result of some unscrupulous persons who claim to be the members of the organisation without any record in any of the state chapters across the country.

According to him, recently some non-members of the organisation  planned to take advantage of the body and wanted to bring It name to disrepute in spite of  the efforts of the organisation, dedicated sacrifice and commitment to humanity and development.

He disclosed  that the group was duly registered under Corporate Affairs Commission Act and does only legitimate businesses.

 “The general public should always confirm from our Secretariat when the need arises and  any untoward activity under the guise of representing the group by contacting  any of our state chapters or national headquarter  to report any of such unwarranted behavior or any issue concerning the organization before going public with it,” he pleaded.
