He noted that the billionaire’s case could still be proven innocent, but not on all grounds. Alieke pointed out that a couple of things Blord most definitely did wrong led to his arrest for terrorism financing.
Necessary licenses and certificates
According to Stan Alieke, Blord flouted at least two significant things which have put him in a dire situation which are compliance and failure to get the necessary licenses and certificates for his fintech business.
Stan Alieke noted that as a fintech company in Nigeria, to run successfully, the business must get compliance certificates from SEC, EFCC, NFIU, CBN and the NCC.
TheTalk.NG recalls reporting when Blord was released from police custody after spending three days in jail.

Here are some of the comments that trailed Stan Alieke’s revelation:
@uduroadboy:
“You mean KYC “know your customer” not KFC “Kentucky Fried Chicken.”
@prince_izuu:
“My Professional advice: 1. BLord should employ the services of a senior person in the banking industry, he can even offer a higher pay for them to agree to work with him. 2. BLord should step down as the CEO of his company and hand it over to the person and he will only act as the Chairman of the group.”
