Yahoo Boys
Nabbed Hiding Inside Chairs With Charms.
Operatives
from the Ibadan zonal office of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,
EFCC, today April 25, 2019 arrested 32 people suspected to be ‘Yahoo-Yahoo
Boys'.
The
arrest of the suspects was not an easy task as most of them hid themselves in
some ridiculous places in the house where they were arrested. Some of the
suspects hid themselves inside chairs and the rest but they were smoked out.
Aged
between 15 and 39 years, the suspects were arrested at Liberty Estate, Laderin
area of Abeokuta, Ogun during an early morning sting operation carried out by
men of the commission.
Due
to the timing, the suspects were taken by surprise when the EFCC operatives
swept on them at one of their notorious havens in the ancient city. Fourteen of
them claimed to be undergraduates, while 18 others said they are self-employed
in various vocations.
The
arrest was sequel to a petition detailing their alleged fraudulent activities,
including internet fraud through which they obtain money from unsuspecting
victims.
Items
recovered from them include six exotic cars, laptops, mobile phones, several
documents containing false pretences and fetish objects.
According
to the EFCC spokesperson, Tony Orilade, the suspects are already helping
operatives with useful information adding, “They will be charged to court as
soon as investigations are concluded”.
