Heartbroken Father Report Son To EFCC For Being A ‘Yahoo’ Boy

In April 2017, a father became a whistleblower after his son, Adamu, then a secondary school student intimated him that he had just bought a house and a shop valued over N2 Million.

After being shocked by the news, the father decided to make a formal complain to the Commission having perceived signs of fraud from Adamu’s explanation of how he got the money.

The suspect had said he got the money through his new phone line, which after purchase, began receiving alerts running into millions of Naira.

Investigations into the matter began immediately and all parties involved were invited. Adamu later mentioned two other accomplices in the crime.

In the course of investigations, it was discovered that Adamu withdrew monies in bits from a First Bank account number 3033389599 owned by one Porong Daniel Nash (a farmer in plateau state); and credited same to different accounts.

Consequently, all accused persons where arrested and recoveries were made to the tune of N939,000 and were returned to the rightful owner by the Zonal Office.
