Earlier this year, the EFCC said “yahoo boys have gone spiritual”, promising to clamp down on their activities.
“Yahoo boys now going spiritual even doing money ritual and making it a new usual we will come for those individuals, tell them it won’t be business as usual,” EFCC had said.
“No going back on the onslaught against yahoo-yahoo or yahoo-plus, whatever nomenclature. Give up, or give in. The Eagle will get you anytime, anywhere.”
