The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has warned hotel owners across the country not to allow internet fraudsters use their facilities for their nefarious acts.

Despite the lack of cooperation by the hotel owners, he said the operatives demonstrated professionalism in ensuring that no one was hurt nor property damaged during the operations, contrary to the narrative in a section of the media.

“The commission has observed a worrying pattern of cold complicity by hospitality entrepreneurs who appear to be hands-in-gloves with suspected fraudsters by housing them over long spells and making internet facilities available to them. “Section 3 of the Advance Fee Fraud And Other Related Offences Act, 2006 provides for a prison term of between five and 15 years without the option of fine for any person who permits his premises to be used for any offence under the Act.”

EFCC isn't fighting cyber-crime, rather fighting economic war, growth of tech, attacking tertiary education & Western civilization in the South. The use of modern tech by Southern Youths is under threat by feudal efcc. Efcc harmful method must be stopped in the South now.

Efcc, no social security provided by Govt to citizens & no form of welfare package / educational grant in Nigeria by Govt. Why confiscate assets, properties & savings of poor Southern Youths responsible for their education & upkeep for a crime against unidentifiable foreigners?

Southern Youths are under siege by Northern Efcc. In this modern time, no one is arrested anywhere in the World as a suspected internet fraudster without petition from victims. The use of phones & computers by Southern Youths is now prohibited indirectly by Northern efcc.

From judges, and now to this. Blam-o-cracy.

cow brain on suit.
