A viral video circulating online shows a man lamenting after an alleged raid by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in Calabar, Cross River State, on Wednesday, October 22, 2025.

According to the man, EFCC officials forcefully gained entry into their apartment by breaking through the POP ceiling and allegedly pouring acid on the locks of their compound gate to open it.

Clips shared on social media reveal visible damage to the ceiling, which the man claimed was caused during the forced entry. He also alleged that the acid used destroyed their gate’s locking system.

As of Thursday, October 23, 2025, the EFCC has not issued any official statement regarding the alleged operation.

This incident has reignited public criticism of the agency’s methods, especially concerning nighttime raids and the use of excessive force—actions many Nigerians have described as unlawful and prone to human rights violations.

Further investigation and official clarification are awaited to verify the man’s claims and determine the full circumstances surrounding the alleged raid.

No single difference between the EFCC and armed robbers again

They have the right to do that

Stop blaming efcc here

Monthly dues must be paid, Everybody is hungry

These people don dey overdo

SARS rebranded into another Parolz

Thieves and terrorists in disguise.

These and many more maleficent activities are we see in emilokan regime.

When hunger caused has become rampant this is the outcome of it.

Their modus operandi isn't different from the arm robbers. Assuming , one of them is been gunned down many fellas will be crying wolf.

Too terrible.

People don't take EFCC to court for harassment,

Efcc don turn bandits oooo

Under which quoted Nigerian law was he tried and proved guilty before you tagged him a fraudster?
I don't support fraudsters but don't turn the country into a jingle, even the military junta didn't do this shameful break-ins

Stop defending illegality

The agency needs to train their staff very well for ethical conduct

Destroying what they cant build

Animals

Governmental armed robbers.

No one is safe in Nigeria except Tinubu.

Nigerians are at the mercy of Policemen, Kidnappers, EFCC, DSS, Bandits, Unknown gunmen, NDLEA, Armed robbers, etc.

Imagine EFCC invading an apartment inhabited by young guys looking for God-knows-what, while Wike the corrupt land grabber, corrupt politicians are walking free.

🙁

Animal farm

If he is a fraudster, EFCC is within its rights.

madridguy:

They know the person they are working for is an embarrassment, so embarrassment is nothing to them anymore

What was inside the apartment anyway

Can you imagine, even criminals have not done this. Now they have even thought some criminals the way to break into some apartments. Security operatives teaching the society crime.

Nigeria is very well but the Nigerians are naturally unpredictable.

This is crazy
Nigeria is gone

Dem don recruit armed robbers and agberos full EFCC and other security outfits...!


What a country!

Always teaching robbers new way to rob. Useless people.

Even if he is a fraudster, is this due process, EFCC breaking into people houses like thieves

I guess they haven’t lost enough of their operatives.

Even me that has nothing to hide, If you break into my house like this,
(You sef know the current state of security in nigeria). Omo i won’t even ask any of them any questions. I will defend myself with whatever i can quickly get my hands on, be it knife or screw driver.

Any of them that gets to heaven gate will explain why they decided to take an approach that lacks common sense.
