A serving Lance Corporal with the Nigerian Airforce, Ajayi Kayode, has been arrested with 26 Others for internet fraud in Lekki, Lagos.<\/p>\n

With Service No: NAF18\/34732, Kayode was arrested while wearing his military attire during an early morning raid at 6B, Fatai Idowu Arobike, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos, on Saturday, August 15, 2020.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

He was said to be on the watch by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC), Lagos Zonal Office, following intelligence received from concerned members of the public about his alleged involvement in criminal activities.<\/p>\n

Arrested with him were: Kalu Emmanuel; Hassan Sunday; Odinaka David Okem; Victor Ochiabuito; Christopher Prince; Victor Ologhu; Alex Aka; Miracle Onyekwere; Habeeb Ayomide; Olakunle Ajeigbu, Rasheed Olanrewaju and Salam Hakeem.<\/p>

Others are: Adeniran Nurudeen; Opeyemi Ojo Chris; Derrick Moris; Shehu Oluoti; Fuad Akinbayo; Babatunde Idowu; Uzo Igwe Nathaniel; Debowale Adedoyin; Shegun Emmanuel; Godswill Maduchem; Samson Kazeem; Oluwatobi Oluwatoba, Olaitan Ajao and Oyindamola Kareem.<\/p>\n

In his statement to the EFCC, Kayode said the \u201cbig shot Yahoo Yahoo boys\u201d in whose company he was arrested, were his friends claiming that they had been teaching him how to make money through cybercrime.<\/p>\n

While the “boys” are members of Organised Cyber Criminal Syndicate Network, (OCCSN), the ladies arrested with them confirmed the involvement of their \u201cboyfriends\u201d in internet fraud.<\/p>\n

Items recovered from the suspects included diamond jewelry, exotic cars and expensive phones.
\nThe suspects would be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
