“The suspects were arrested at Regional Hotel, Iyana- Ishasi, Lagos in a sting operation, following verified intelligence about their alleged involvement in computer-related fraud. Items recovered from the suspects, at the point of arrest, include mobile phones, laptop computers and four cars.”

Oyewale said the suspects would be charged in court as soon as investigations are concluded.


This probably explains why the EFCC officials were upset at the staffer, became unprofessional and slapped her; the hotel and the manager are suspects, likely enablers of a suspected serious crime and may be prosecuted along with the suspected internet fraudsters.

EFCC has repeatedly warned hotel owners and their managers against housing internet fraudsters in the manner reported about this hotel, this report is indicating that the hotel is more of a serious crime scene than a hospitality centre and it's unfortunate.

There's absolutely no way the facility can host such a large number of young people and the manager will claim it's not suspicious of such gathering.

These people and sugarcoating. Even market women can recognize those boys by mere looking at them. What intelligence tipping is needed again when the boys already made it easier for them to be arrested.

They dress same way, have the same hairstyles, use same phones, are always in same location etc.
Una go arrest tire.
One thing about this Guy's
They can't observe a solitude mode
Quick money invites quick consequences.

You are already justifying the action of the EFCC why they manhandled innocent citizens ( innocent until proven guilty by a competent court of law) also violated their constitutional rights, here you are also passing judgment on them already that they are guilty just because you want to defend the government, you can't tell me everybody in the hotel is guilty to get arrested and paraded....

Besides such type of operation require search warrants or court order....

I knew when Tinubu will be sworn in as president we will be seeing this type of things happen more, I told my brothers last year that you will see EFCC raiding boys in hundreds not because they are fighting crime but because of:

1. The money they will make from the boys

2. To make it look as if they are working .

3. To divert attention from Tinubu's governance.

4. To make it look as if the youths are the problem of the country.

I told them that they might also see things like this from news headlines "Tinubu and his crusade against crime" where they will arrest over 500 boys in a single swoop.

The question to ask, is corruption reducing with this style? If the corruption is not reducing in Nigeria then they are using a wrong method.
So, EFCC should not arrest fraudsters because they are not politicians, and they should make any progress report about their activities because it is distracting you?

I wonder how you coordinate yourself in your profession with this level of hatred for President Tinubu

Imagine I didn't mention Tinubu in all of my statement but somehow you know Tinubu is at fault here.

Why is EFCC so fixated on Yahoo boys while ignoring the major reason OBJ established it?

Imagine Nigerian's NIN sold for just 100 naira and no single arrest has been made yet.

Yahaya Bello is still a free man up till now
U forgot to add Betta Edu the embattled humanitarian minister!

I do know why someone will prefer to be a yahoo boy instead of a bandit herdsman. One is legit and protected the other is not.

Yahoo is just the internet side of fraud, fraud has been since even maybe before independence in Nigeria. So the yahoo part majorly started when internet came to Nigeria, however it has been growing as corruption in governance has grown...

Most hotels can close business without yahoo boys patronage.
This fraudsters buys wine and beer at premium rates because it is not their sweats.They lodge in the hotel for months and pay in advance.They take all kinds of hard drugs, invite different kinds of girls into their hotel rooms for sex and cause nuisance in the hotel.If they invite a new girl when they already have one in their room,they will book for another room and lodges the new runs babe there.This girl will be there for weeks eating expensive food, taking hard drugs and drinks at his expenses,thereby piling up bills.
The management put a deaf ear to all these because they are making money from this fraudsters.
But when their finance is exhausted they will start buying drinks on credit and still be retaining their rooms with unpaid bills.The management will grant their wish hoping they will pay back after their successful scam with free wifi.Security at the gate will be alerted incase the yahoo guest want to japa..If their bills piles up and they cannot pay, the hotel management will seize their laptops,cars clothes,shoes and phones and kick them out of their rooms.
talking from experience?

I'm not impressed at all!
Toothless EFCC only viciously goes after their favorite customers (Internet Fraudsters), while they either ignore or can't find the big fish (Yahoo Bello and all other politician arm robbers around the country).

You are very correct.
Average Nigerian is very corrupt because he only thinks about himself. The leaders we have are the product of our society with absolute tendency to oppress and suppress followers and this has been the situation since Nigeria is in existence

It is leaders of course but the leadership start from you and I and not the only people in government.
There is one street I passed through last night, each time I passed through the street, I always wonder what will become the fate of the children growing up on that street because both left and right are beer parlours and a brothel in a residential area
