6 Yahoo Boys in Kubwa Reportedly Arrested by EFCC

News reaching us confirm that the Nigerian police force raided the hideout of  6 yahoo yahoo boys and arrested them here in Kubwa. This was following  a similar Lagos arrest incident.

In its latest operation, the EFCC said via its Twitter: “A sting operation in Kubwa, Abuja following intelligence report has resulted in arrest of six ‘yahoo yahoo’ boys.

Also discovered were 4 ECOWAS Int’l passports, 17 phones & Certificate of Award of Asian Professional Security Association in favour of Sun Yaje were recovered from them among others.”
THE WHISTLER reports that there has been a rise recently in the number of sting operations carried out by operatives of the anti-graft agency against activities of ‘Yahoo boys’.
It would be recalled that as part of its crackdown on cybercrime and money laundering in the country, the EFCC had in April 2018, arrested alleged internet fraudsters in Lekki, Lagos State, from whom it recovered exotic cars and charms.
