following intelligence between Jan. 17 and Jan. 31, 2019 in Awka, Anambra and Enugu States.
Golly. I hope they didn't nab Sani Abacha's son. He and I are gonna share sixty million US dollars (60,000,000US$)...
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Friday in Enugu paraded 13 suspected internet fraudsters popularly called ’yahoo yahoo boys’.
The South East Zonal Head of the commission, Mr Usma Iman said that the suspects were arrested following intelligence between Jan. 17 and Jan. 31, 2019 in Awka, Anambra and Enugu States.
Imam said that the arrests were as a result of the commission’s avowed and renewed commitment to stamp out cyber crime in the country.
He said that officers of the commission on Jan. 17 raided the homes of suspected cyber criminals in Awka and arrested three suspects.
The zonal head said that similar exercise was carried out in Enugu on Jan. 30 and Jan. 31 during which six and four suspects were arrested respectively.
"We are convinced after our investigations that the suspects have cases to answer. They shall be charged to court next week," he said.
Imam said that the image of the country had been battered due to activities of cyber criminals.
"Nigerians are now treated as criminals by other countries due to activities of few individuals in our midst and the EFCC is determined to stamp it out," he said.
He said that incriminating items were recovered from the suspects.
"At the beginning of investigations the suspects denied committing the crime but when we started analysing their mobile phones and laptops we established the offenses.
