The Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Mr Ibrahim Magu, says the agency is planning to rehabilitate young people who are engaged in Internet fraud, popularly known as Yahoo Yahoo boys.

Magu stated this in Lagos on Thursday while delivering a paper titled, ‘Strategic change administration and innovation to curb corruption in Nigeria,’ at the third All Administrators National Conference of the Chartered Institute of Administration

According to him, Internet fraudsters could be useful to the agency in future.

While speaking on collaboration between the Nigerian graft agency and other nations, Magu said EFCC had secured collaboration with ECOWAS member-states to aid in prosecution of cross-border crimes.

He stated, “So if you carry money from Nigeria and escape to Ghana, we will just call the men in Ghana and say, ‘arrange this man and keep him for me.

“This is what the Yahoo-Yahoo boys like to do. But we are planning to rehabilitate them because they can be useful to us in future.”

Magu said the graft agency had been able to secure 614 convictions between January and September. .

He attributed this to the increase in the agency’s zonal offices from seven in 2009 to 18 in 2018.

According to him, in addition to increasing its zonal offices, the agency had also increased and trained more personnel all in an effort to curb corruption in the country.

In the fight against corruption, synergy is important, the EFCC acting chairman said.

He urged the CIA to collaborate with the agency in the fight by making sure that they administer their affairs in a corruption-free manner.

He also called on civil organisations and members of the public to report cases of corruption to the agency.

They will definitely go back to yahoo wiser and more determined

Those boys have no intention to do any regular job.

They are more interested in Moet with sparklers at the clubs than all this talk of rehabilitation.

Out of 200 maybe 2 might consider it worth doing.

Nigeria don finish be that.

Lol

Every Nigerian youth needs rehabilitation, it is now even better to see that becoming a yahoo boy will help them get that attention and quest for rehabilitation faster.

Una go arrest and rehabilitate tire.

Dundees who always put the cart before the horse.

Rehabilitate them like given them good jobs or placing them on salary cos these ones don taste luxury lives oooo, they need good jobs so they won't even think abt yahoo anymore. Bt if it's petty jobs rather keep ur rehabilitation cos I knw most will go back to it if they can't meet ends meet wit the d jobs.

The Yahoo boys that you guys are milking millions of naira from?

Rehabilitation my foot,,, Yahoo is in my DNA

Hmmmm

They don excuse of wetin dem de use the money wey dem seize from the boys do.

The funds recovered from them were used for their rehabilitation program

Hmmn.

For this same Nigeria wey we dey? Na lie.

Hope the rehabilitation involves providing them with good jobs. Doing otherwise is a total waste of time.

Call for our 500w mobile power bank with 250AH inbuilt lithium ion battery for your TV, sound system, PCs and light for up to 12 hours uptime

If not for the street plenty guys for the beg .. !

Kid me not!

23% of Nigerian Population are without a job, over 48% of Nigeria or about 98million are living on less than $2 a day (transport feeding accomodation utility), 80% of people with work are underpaid, with Doctors and Engineers migrating in exodus to other countries ..

Now Magu thinks any youth would rather starve to death than duping horrnnyy perveted Americans that want to have sex with teenage models

This people are far from reality, Abuja is a the opposite of Nigerias reality so they think all is well

How does a youth join yahoo? Magu should ask...

They join after being jobless, and penniless for a long time lossing Girlfriends to richkids, and watching thier mothers starve even after schooling or learning trades....

This jobless youth are frustrated to the point they ask anybody doing better for the way forward


.

Mr Magu, Where are the cars your men seized from yahoo boys??

Efcc are not real niggarrrz.
Rehabilitation is not the answer

They are supposed to enlighten the public to be real niggarrrz and real bitches
The world infact is supposed to be enlightened on how to be real niggarrrz
Because a real niggarrr can't be a maga to another real niggarrr


As far as we the real niggarrrs are concerned
We will continue to bomb
And if you are not a real niggarrr or real bitch
Then you will bleed

But boko haram and bandits can do regular jobs.

That's really a good development
These Yahoo boys have no mercy
They have caused so much pains to many people
Having a Nigerian passport is a disaster!!!

Well said indeed. They never look at the root of a problem to solve it, they are more concerned with the surface and giving cosmetic partial solution that sustains their financial needs and fame.

They use charms to carry out their work effectively.......I don't think they are brilliant.

Let them operate without rituals and charms so that we will see how intelligent they are........una go see weda FBI no go full naija...those guys use charms to make their operation successful.

Pls let's use our brain.

A lot of able youths are here without been recognize.....it is now Yahoo boys that you are recognizing.....guys wey don taste money na him you won rehabilitate come dey pay chicken change.

This is d way to go. If they can rehabilitate Boko haram then they should do this !

The first thing Nigeria should do to reduce internet fraud to an understandable level is to create massive employment so the youths could be engaged.

smile, ds our leaders slf. shey Yahoo bois tell u say rehabilitation na der problem ni abi Money, kudi, ego, owo, employment

You can't give what you don't have. EFCC itself needs rehabilitation. So how can it rehabilitate others when it itself is not rehabilitated?

This is a perfect example of the blind leading the blind.

Or this case, a totally blind person leading a person blind in just one eye.

The corruption in EFCC stinks to high heavens. Most of these fraudsters they parade are those who have nothing to offer.

The few who do are always arrested, massively extorted until they go broke and released before they are rearrested and paraded. Isn't that madness?

Even people who report money crimes to EFCC drop up to half of the recovered money for agents.

That's why EFCC only returns recovered monies to the victims in cash -- irrespective of the amount -- and never through bank transfer.

According to him, Internet fraudsters could be useful to the agency in future.

It is the agents that will actually be useful to internet fraudsters and not the other way round.

Both are criminals. One just happens to be backed by the government.

Rehabilitataed yahoo boys. Hmmmm

If the good jobs was justly available and gotten without bias at least 70% of the yahoo boys would not indulge in it talk more of adding plus to their yahoo.

Inside life...just like em motor park agberos are useful to FSARS.

Any way na way.
