A statement by Mr Osita Nwanisobi, CBN ‘s Acting Director, Corporate Communications urged the public not to do business with both companies.

“The attention of the CBN has been drawn to the activities of Messrs Azimo and Transfer Wise, both of which are purportedly transacting business, albeit unauthorised, as IMTOs.
