EFCC arrests two internet fraud suspects at Skales’ residence

Operatives of the Lagos Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC) on Tuesday, October 10, 2023, have arrested two suspected internet fraudsters at the residence of Nigerian singer, Skales.

This comes after the singer had vehemently denied any involvement in fraudulent activities following the raid on his apartment by EFCC officials at House F10, Victoria Crest 4, Lekki, Lagos.

EFCC in a recent post on X (formerly Twitter) said the suspects: Udemba Chukwuemeka (a.k.a Jody) and Jamal Jamiu Onasola (a.k.a. Jamal) were arrested at the residence of a musician: John Njeng Njeng (a.k.a Skales).

“The two suspects,  suspected of being involved in dating scam, described Njeng as their ” mentor”. While Chukwuemeka has been in Njeng’s residence for two years, Onasola has only stayed there for few months.

“They will be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded,” the statement read.
