Why don't you watch the video?

His first channel that fetched him the money got deleted after he gave EFCC the logging details ...

You have the same brain like the EFCC we are talking about here. You conclude and pass judgement without getting sufficient info

Your deleted account can be restored (just show court judgement/evidence)
Maybe you don’t didn’t know that
Have you ever ran a monetized channel Abi you just dey talk?

Any another ignorant and illeterate youth sighted.
First you didn't watch the video before concluding
Second you don't know that you can have as many YouTube channels as you can connected to one Adsense account.
No difference between you and the EFCC thieves

1. You can restore an account with a court judgement
2. Deleting YouTube does not delete your Adsense
3. Adsense is a straight forward credit transaction and any basic EFCC officer shouldn’t be confused about

I’m not saying he was into something else but if them for no catch guys like Naira Marley openly you go say na only music be him source and support him with your life

A young Nigerian Jude Bela has won the Nigeria Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) at the appellate court for illegal detention, and confiscation of his properties all in the name of "he's too young to make money from Google Adsense"

According to the video shared by Jude Bela on his YouTube page, trouble started back in 2019 when the EFCC ordered 2 Nigerian banks UBA and Polaris banks to freeze all his accounts on suspicion of money laundering. He was invited to the EFCC office where he was later detained for four days and thereafter his house was searched where the EFCC took his house and business documents and later seized his cars and house.

According to Bela, he showed EFCC his source of income which is Google Adsense from YouTube but the argument from EFCC was that he was too young to have such an amount. After much frustration by EFCC and its refusal to charge him to court, he decided to sue the EFCC at the federal high court where he won the case against the gross violation of his human rights. The case was appealed by EFCC at the appeal court and the appellate court also upheld the judgement of the high court.

During this trauma period, he lost everything, his business, joy and YouTube channel

The YouTube channels (he had more than 1) which he made those money were shut down
Atleast he is still alive they didn't shoot him and claim he was an armed robber, he should go to another country far away from naigeria and stat again, he obviously is talented his talent is one thing they can never take away from he, they can take away his properties and cars and temporarily his freedom.


The naigerian system hates successful youths.

I believe one of those jealous Nigerians must have reported him to EFCC or he broke money laundering laws unknowingly, could also be a witch hunt because of his political content.

The lawyer who was suppose to protect him was already incapacitated when she saw her bank client and partner ( conflict of interest)

Efcc took action, they knew he was legit that is why they couldn't sue him to court but they wanted to frustrate him.

They guy sue them back and won but i doubt they will give him one dime for damages.


Why wont they give him money for damages something court have ordered see this man o

That's Nigeria for you.

You are too young to make such money at this age and time of the world. And you want youths to be hardworking.

Remain in poverty.

He got all these properties from a total video views of Less than 50k?
Not taking any sides,just saying

Nigerians quickly rush to take sides...

Your comment is the first one that showed some critical thinking.

I smelt a rat quickly...on reading the story.

Even if the old channel that he claimed was taken down made such income, it will be known widely to Nigerians.

And YouTube will DEFINITELY take sides with him if he proves it was unfairly reported to be taken down.

Don't mind the unintelligent people rushing to abuse you. They are not too smart. One doesn't rush to swallow someone's account. It's okay to question details that are unclear.

I literally wrote Or, it is a guess.

True, you can receive any amount of money but seems maybe he deposited more than 5m and the banks reported to efcc

Btw, i watched the video, the female lawyer wasn't an accomplice of Efcc but she had conflict of interest because her clients was also one of the bank, instead of her to professional tell the guy that she wont be able to carry on with the case, she decided to act unprofessionally.

Next time, he should learn to stop keeping money in the banks....banks are not your friends.





Where would you keep your money then?

That is how islamists think, it's like that all over the world. Check all the countries where Muslims have gained control, they are often involved in suppression of people voices. Nigeria should fight vigorously back against the islamization agenda of the Northern Muslims. Otherwise, the little freedom you have yet will be snatched away from you. Islam is a tool for slavery. In fact, human slavery is a core tenet of islamic beliefs.

Nigeria is a destiny killer if Elon mUsk is a nigerian
Efcc and evil jealous agencies would have killed him

You can't grow in Nigeria as a young IT

Elon musk set up online PayPal in south Africa as a young kid

See today he is helping the world with tech

You know how much American government see as a tax from Elon company


They are so many opportunities in foreign land bit there none in Nigeria for young people

Young people are driver of economy growth
Other nations are stealing talented Nigerians

Why nigeria government kill them

God why Nigeria

Damn! What of we upcoming Forex traders that will create YouTube channels to teach what we know in the markets?

I have a close friend who has traded $20K, $7K, $4K and lots more (his yet to own a YouTube channel but I know his planning to)...

His doing fine, and some of us are picking up.
What happens to us in the hands of this guys (EFCC) when we start making huge $$$ (be it in anything done legit remotely, not only Forex, YouTubing and co)

:/ We can't be leaving huge amount of money in USDT, sometimes they don't look that safe too...

Who did we offend!

His old channel has 40k views

You need 1milluon views to get 10k dollars in top tier countries

Assuming he gets the top tier rate, that’s just $400. Tell me how you want to buga with $400. Don’t be deceived chief. If the YouTube channel was thier evidence against him, why would they delete it? Abi deleting it will delete evidence for a judge who doesn’t know how Adsense works?

You're talking bullshit cos I've gotten about 2 channels deleted by YouTube before.

Besides I have a channel with more than 1million views from top tier countries and I'm not even close to $10k as you assume. Please stop confusing people cos you're just talking out of point

smart SOUTH people just comot


Bigchristo:
I keep saying it that if all Nigerian youths start suing EFCC they will be forced to stop harassing people, EFCC loses most big corruption cases to politicians because of inadequate evidence they don’t do investigation 95% of their cases is just guess work, imagine they don’t even have good evidence to charge the guy because they were thinking he is a yahoo boy that’s what usually comes to their mind when they see a young man living good and driving a good car, if not that the government has created hardship and inflation among Nigerians what’s car and landed properties which could not be acquired legitimately at a young age make we old first before having such things that make life easier for citizens? You will see flashy cars plying roads in UAE young people will be driving fast cars without being investigated because the country is worth it, let me tell you as a Nigerian you are supposed to be receiving some wages and allowances from government and also if you are working you can apply for car loan and pay back installments until you finished paying for it same with house and landed properties, what makes me feel angry seeing people campaigning for some ancestors to become president is this, why is Nigeria different from the rest of the world in terms of government and social welfare policies to their citizens? US and European countries etc doing that for their citizens aren’t wealthier than Nigeria in fact some of those countries don’t even have resources or make the kind of money Nigeria is making through mineral resources and crude oil sales, they want us to be looking so razz and tattered once young man drive car is yahoo or is fraud very stupid mentality

Those of you allowing dead brains in government all in the name of tribalism should stop it, you may feel is good to have your tribal person in power how about having a competent government that can guarantee security of Nigerians and also giving us basic benefits that we deserved have you thought of that before allowing some stupid old men lie to you?
