Man Hides In Ceiling After Failed Attempts To Rob, Hack FCMB Systems (Video) by Newsgeek24(op): 11:26am On Jul 02, 2025
A video currently making the rounds online has captured the shocking moment a young man was discovered hiding in the ceiling of a bank after a botched robbery attempt, News360 Nigeria reports.

According to eyewitness accounts, the incident occurred at a branch of First City Monument Bank (FCMB).

The suspect allegedly sneaked into the bank premises during business hours, quietly locked himself in one of the restrooms, and later climbed into the ceiling, waiting for nightfall to carry out his plan.

However, things took an unexpected turn the next morning when bank staff arrived for work and noticed the main entrance was still locked from within. Sensing that something was wrong, they forced their way inside and soon heard strange noises coming from the ceiling.

Upon investigation, security operatives discovered the suspect hiding above the ceiling panels, allegedly attempting to tamper with the bank’s systems.

The viral video shows the suspect being forcefully dragged down, beaten, and tied up by security operatives and onlookers before being taken away.

Mission impossible part 100

Don't ask Nairaland members for contact details (email, phone, bbpin) or investments.

Clown!

Na him type go dey scream school Na scam for social media.

Its easier to hack the system remotely, than this mission impossible - Ghost protocol that he tried executing.

Let's say you have an insider (bank staff) who gave you his computer password and the logins of whatever interbank platform that FCMB is using.. How does he intend to get the computer password, application logins, and then bypass the token authentication of the supervisor to authenticate the initiated transaction?

Which bank will leave their branch interbank platform open overnight sef?

Spiderman, you're going to jail!

When I came across the video, the boy was stoned, struck many times with guns and all manner of strikes - some guys said he is desperate and so what were you expecting in a moribund society like this one.

If not for G thief go plenty for street well well, hunger dey the land and besides the law enforcement can do better by asking him mental clarity questions not by flogging the boy he might be innocent

Same police saying they are against jungle justice are doing the jungle justice.

See how one of them wanted to break the thief's head.

Arrest him and take him to the station, simple as that.

But they are tying him up like goat wey dey wan roast.

the real question is how are we sure this is not the first time one of them has been caught?

now the banks are all going to have to upgrade their security policies.

the guy could have cloned pc hard drives or maybe installed RATs on systems

Money heist gone wrong.
It's better to be drinking garri in peace than engaging in crimes. I hope his eyes are clear now and he will understand the power in freedom of movement.
Thank God my last 2k is still intact.

The stupidity of beating up suspects after being caught has to be trained out of Nigerian Security personnel
Look at that eediot using his service rifle to hit the suspect
If the safety goes off on that weapon and there are casualties the 🤡 will blame the devil.
Meanwhile there is more than meets the eye to this story
That suspect looks mentally unstable because how on earth would you believe you can outwit a bank's software security architecture without tools or any packages at all
Anyways that's for the judiciary to decide
Again avoid Ap*cheat in all you do
QED grin

You called a criminal a man? This is a Yahoo lazy a s s want to close the entire bank down he is lucky police are there they will assure him since.

You see them? If you ask him where do you stand you will hear I'm obidient because they are the only ones in Nigeria waiting for their Emperor to rain cash from heaven, they want everything free.

But shame on FCMB so you don have inner monitoring CCTV to see this ewu did night duty inside your bank? If I'm the CEO of that bank the managers in that bank are already jobless no two way about because who is monitoring the CCTV ans where are the CCTV gone? Dem go explain taya cus if this ewu have succeeded it's the CEO head that will suffers it.
Re: Man Hides In Ceiling After Failed Attempts To Rob, Hack FCMB Systems (Video) by twosquare(m):
If he had succeeded, he would have been using Benz to disturb us in the neighborhood...

You will start seeing, "My hustle don pay" post by him on social media.

Carrying girls and pumping the champagne.

Then, the "I tap into your blessings and grace" people will flood the thread, calling others who question his sudden launch into wealth haters.

That's why one needs to be careful what you praise, who you envy, and the grace you want.

That grace may be one of a thief.
