The Ibadan zonal office of
EFCC on Tuesday, June 18, 2019, arrested three suspected internet fraudsters
and two others for being in possession of Double Barrel Gun.
They were picked up at
Ologuneru and Olodo areas of Ibadan, the Oyo State capital after days of
surveillance mounted on them to test the veracity of allegations of fraudulent
activities and flamboyant life without tangible source of income levelled against
them in series of petitions authored by their neighbours.
The suspects
are Ajaguna Quadri Biola (27), Nafiu Moshood (23) and Anuoluwapo James Olasupo
(22). At the time of his arrest, Biola, who claimed to be an undergraduate of
the Polytechnic, Ibadan, was in possession of one 2008 Toyota Camry car, two
laptops, one iPhone X, two internet modems and one smartwatch.
Mosheed said he
is a student of Alayande College of Education, Oyo State. Items recovered from
him are one iphone 8 plus, one Tecno phone and one laptop. In his own
statement, Olasupo claimed to be a phone engineer. Two laptops, one phone and
one mobile wifi were recovered from him.
EFCC’s preliminary investigation has revealed that the license allegedly obtained for the gun was inconsistent. The suspects will therefore be transferred to the Nigerian Police Force for further investigation.
