What they’re saying

“Four cars, various phone brands, and laptop computers with fake documents were seized from them.”

There were reportedly “four brands of mobile phones” in the possession of the suspects.

Bottom Line

Lastly, it’s important to remember that cybercrime is a major problem. Arrests are important, but they ought to be a part of a bigger plan that involves working with other countries to break up these networks and educating the public about online safety.

The EFCC stated that the accused will be charged once the investigations are completed.

The agency reported that it also arrested four people during a sting operation on Thursday in Abuja as a result of intelligence and surveillance on their movements in the Kubwa region.
