The spokes person of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Tony Orilade has explained the reason Naira Marley, whose real name is Afeez Fashola was arrested.
EFCC also confirmed the arrest of Omoniyi Temidayo Raphael aka Zlatan. Also arrested is Rahman Jago. The suspects are being held at the EFCC office in Lagos.
The EFCC spokesman who stated this in a statement released on Friday said they were picked up in connection with alleged case of internet fraud and money laundering.
“Intelligence report had also linked them to cybercrime offences. They were arrested along with: Tiamiu Abdulrahman Kayode, Adewunmi Adeyanju Moses and Abubakar Musa.
“Their arrest followed an early morning raid on Friday, May 10, 2019 at 9, Gbangbola Street, Ikate, Lekki, Lagos.
“At the point of arrest, the Commission found and recovered a number of items, including laptops, from the suspects.
“They have so far volunteered useful information about their involvement in the alleged criminal activities, even as investigations continue.”
Marley, some days ago, called on Nigerians to pray for Yahoo boys rather than condemn them.
