The Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission (EFCC) Ibadan zonal office, has raided an Osogbo-based
nightclub, arrested 94 ‘Yahoo’ boys and confiscated 19 cars, laptops, mobile
phones, and other items.
A statement on Monday by
the agency’s spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, said the nightclub is located on the
Ibadan-Iwo Expressway of the Osun State capital.
The early morning raid, Mr
Uwujaren said, was sequel to an intelligence report hinting that the suspected
internet fraudsters were organising a night party for Sunday, October 13 during
which some of them intended to celebrate their loots.
The spokesman said a
discreet operation on the club had earlier been carried out to ascertain the
authenticity of the intelligence.
He added that the suspects
were being questioned, noting that those indicted would be prosecuted at the
end of investigations.
