Is muyiwa adejobi still the police spokesman
?
This news e get as e be
The whole write-up is a mess. They tagged him a suspected yahoo boy in the headline and still went ahead to write that he is not the suspect of the raid. Even Chatgpt will do better.

Why running when no one is pursuing you?
If you get arrested, and you innocent,you get a good lawyer to fight for you and prove your case.
If you guilty, you get bailed, and likely sentenced on judgement.
In few years, you out to continue life.
Why risk your life ?
May his soul R.I.P.

why running? when our security outfits operate like armed robbers, who will not run to try to protect themselves.

But for the efcc actions the deceased would not have jumped off the fence

Contributory negligence

Omo all you need in Nigeria is a good lawyer

Efcc has been getting away with a lot of atrocities recently

We need our country back

After a raid led to this they "left immediately". So they couldn't use their raiding vehicle to take the guy to the hospital immediately?

They said he was not a suspect, why is he now labelled as suspected Yahoo boy? What if the guy jumped cos he thought they were "bad elements" raiding the house?

If they left after the incident, obviously without arresting anybody, then what was the nature/source of their "intelligence" that informed the raid?
Many thanks for your analysis.

These same questions were on my mind before I read your post.

With their crude and uncivilized method, who wouldn't react that way? They just killed an innocent man; period.

If he is not even a suspect, why was he in a panic to even Jump from the 7th floor, how did he think he will survive.
Re: Suspected Yahoo Boy Jumps From 7th Floor & Dies During EFCC Raid by AustineE1: 2:09pm On Nov 09, 2025
My own take on this is that the boy most likely is a yahoo boy and EFCC also came for him as a suspect but because of the accident,the whole narratives have changed.
However I still blame the young man,EFCC arrest is not the end of the world,they may end up releasing him,if nothing serious is found on him and even when found guilty,you do the time.
More like,if you cannot do the time don't do the crime.
RIP thou,such a painful death.

Bro,your analysis is top notch but I still wonder why some youths are this scared when face with arrest,a similar incident happened sometime ago in a northern state,in a bid to escape arrest,a boy lost his life,meanwhile those caught were released in no distant time after due investigations. Why jumping from a high rising building when your arrest is not a death sentence,even if it is!

This statement from EFCC is exactly why Nigerians don’t take our institutions seriously. Every time young people are harassed, profiled, or brutalized, the story is always the same: “We were just doing our job.” You storm residential areas like armed invaders, break into houses at 2am, terrorize everyone in sight and then when someone panics and tries to flee, you turn around and blame him for “suicidal action.” Let’s be honest, people don’t jump off buildings unless they’re afraid for their lives.

EFCC has built a culture where every youth with a laptop or a car is automatically labeled a criminal. Instead of going after the politicians who have stolen billions from Nigeria since 1960, they prefer to stage dramatic raids in estates because it’s easier and it makes for Instagram content. You cannot keep criminalizing young success in a collapsing economy and then act surprised when your presence causes fear.

“No one with nothing to hide should be afraid”? Please. In this country, innocence has never protected anyone. What people fear is the brutality, the intimidation, the handcuffs first and investigation later. If EFCC wants respect, it must show professionalism, intelligence-led investigations, due process and accountability. Until then, this is just another tragic example of how force without sense continues to destroy young lives in Nigeria.

The poor guy might have thought they were kidnappers or armed robbers! These law enforcement agencies are the most unprofessional! They would cause harm and gently disengage themselves!

Anybody thats has been to 1004 knows he wont survive that fall. How much EFCC wan collect? They won't obviously send him to prison na just to chop am office.

Its even easier to hide your phone than to jump from seven storey.
Baffles me how these boys, as smart as they are dont know what a burner phone is used for especially when they are out.

problem is the way a raid is done. EFCC would have no arrest warrant but will storm residential buildings breaking down doors. It is very natural for people to panic and act irrationally. My estate was in chaos and fear the day they came
Re: Suspected Yahoo Boy Jumps From 7th Floor & Dies During EFCC Raid by Gerrard59(m): 2:51pm On Nov 09, 2025
The other was Perewrinkle Estate, where an alleged yahoo boy jumped from the fourth floor. Now, in 1004 estate, another jumped from the seventh floor.

How does the EFFC differentiate a yahoo boy from a non-yahoo boy and do they have an arrest warrant for this break-ins that they perform?

Kidnappers and robbers in 1004? Isn't that place supposed to be safe?

Even if the windows has burglary, the spirit of those he kpai directly or indirectly will at that moment remove the burglary making him to be seeing it as exit door or squeeze him out 2ru it. That's what the real Waterloo is.

The culture is terrible as they try to mean it is a sin to be financially comfortable while living in the country. And it is not just young people, there are cases where even married men in their mid-30s are apprehended after a midnight raid.
