*Says Commission Cannot Register Such Association As It’s Name And Object Offensive Amongst Other Reasons

The Corporate Affairs Commission has disclaimed the purported registration of a so-called “Wickedness Association of Nigeria Lokoja Chapter” describing it as false, fake and fraudulent.

According to a statement by the manager of the commission dated 9th of January 2023, the Commission does not register Associations as business names and could therefore not have approved the registration of the peddled Association as a Business Name.

The statement also added that the purported registration certificate was not and could not have been issued by the Commission for the following reasons:

1. The Commission does not register Associations as Business Names;
2. The name and object of the “Association” offend the provisions of Section 852(1)(c) in that they are undesirable, offensive, and contrary to public policy; and
3. The officer who purportedly signed the certificate had retired from the service of the Commission long before the date the certificate was purportedly issued.

The Commission urged the public to disregard the registration of the said Association and described it as wicked qnd fraudulent.

It also urged the general public to always crosscheck the registration of entities by the Commission on the following website: search.cac.gov.ng
