The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) says it has arrested three persons including a police inspector posing as operatives of the agency during an illegal operation in Lagos.
The commission in a statement shared via its Twitter handle on Thursday, identified the three men as Pascal Ugwu Chijoke, Sodiq Adekunle, and Edwin Bassey – a police inspector.
EFCC’s spokesperson, Wilson Uwujaren, who signed the statement, said the suspects were arrested at New Horizon Estate, Lekki, Lagos, “in the middle of their illegal operation to ‘serve’ a court order” on “an unsuspecting victim”.
