The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has suspended some of its operatives over allegedly extorting the sum of N10 million from a Nigerian rapper, Oladipupo Oladimeji, popularly known as Oladips.
EFCC’s spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, disclosed this in a statement on Saturday in Abuja.
The hip-pop artist had alleged
that he was detained for five days by the EFCC operatives, claiming that he paid N10 million before regaining his freedom in spite of no evidence of wrongdoing.Oyewale said the anti-graft agency viewed the allegation with the utmost seriousness and had already launched a full-scale investigation into the matter.
”The commission wishes to state unreservedly that the grim picture painted by the artist does not reflect the true picture of the EFCC.
”We have seen his claims and have commenced investigations on them accordingly.
