The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has preferred 11 charges bordering on fraud against upcoming musician, Azeez Fashola, aka Naira Marley, for alleged credit card fraud.

The musician effectively risks seven years in jail if found guilty, as Section 33 (2) which he was accused of breaching, reads: “Any person who uses: a counterfeit access device; an unauthorised access device; an access device issued to another person; resulting in a loss or gain commits an offence and shall be liable on conviction to imprisonment for a term of not more than seven years or a fine of not more than N5,000,000.00 and forfeiture of the advantage or value derived from his act.

The charges with suit number FHC/L/178C/19 were filed before a Lagos State High Court.

Some of the credit cards, according to the EFCC, bore the names- Nicole Louise Malyon, and Timea Fedorne Tatar.

The alleged crimes were in contravention of the Money Laundering (Prohibition) Act and the Cyber Crimes Act.

The charges read in part, “That you, Azeez Adeshina Fashola, aka Naira Marley, and Raze (still at large), on or about the 11th day of December 2018, within the jurisdiction of this honourable court, conspired amongst yourselves to use Access card 42658840359191132 issued to persons other than you in a bid to obtain gain and you thereby committed an offence contrary to Section 27(1)(b) of the Cyber Crimes (Prohibition, Prevention etc) Act 2015 and punishable under Section 33(2) of the Same Act.

“That you, Azeez Adeshina Fashola, aka Naira Marley, and Raze (still at large), on or about the 10th day of May 2019, within the jurisdiction of this honorable court, with intent to defraud possessed, counterfeit card 4921819410257431 issued to Timea Fedorne Tatar and you thereby committed an offence contrary to and punishable under Section 33(9) of Cyber Crimes (Prohibition, Prevention etc) Act 2015.”

The artiste has been enmeshed in controversy in the last one month following his decision to openly support online fraud commonly called ‘Yahoo Yahoo.’

He was arrested last Friday along with four others, including his bosom friend, Zlatan Ibile.

Poor boy

Oga oo

Ihe onye kwutere, o nwere isi ya buru!

very nice...use him as a scapegoat

glorifying internet scams openly (and secretly) is barbarism of the highest order

EFCC were on their own, mans decided to put himself in their radar. You see what happens when one decides to talk too much? Sometimes, you're your own "village people".

K

The thing go clear for e eye soon..

What are the charges or they don’t have names. One single conviction we are yet to see.


Maina is basically a free man and oke is in the Bahamas.

Sorry bro! you didn’t saw it coming, his mouth Kobalized him.
I’m not justifying his actions!

His case was so fast unlike all this our corrupt politicians they will keep adjourning their case until God knows.

Mr Bullion van should be charged for money laundering.
Gandollar was also caught red handed collecting bribe

EFCC sleep jeje na so one #aira Mailey go wake am EFCC come vex reason him matter.

Prison izzagoal!


Every supporter of this bastard and internet fraud will live long to know what it feels like being scammed.



Idiots!

Thank you very much EFCC.

A lanky drug addict can not be bigger than the State.

Gbas gbos

Actually thought the case against him was due to his lousy mouth, never knew he was directly involved in fraud.

Make dem use better koboko flog am first before sending him to khirikhiri.

Nemesis

Wahala went from 0-100 real quick.

Naira Marley would be injected in prison and fall sick when he's out. That's what the govt does to ppl like him.

This one Beans don done well, these guys have been searching for a scapegoat, Naira Marley presented himself a Stray goat.

All dog eats sh*t but the ones that exposes the leftover particles are known to be the eater...

In a shot form, Naira marley caused his own wahala

They all keep making noise but have no real money and connection.

Efcc the image tanisher

martineverest:
very nice...use him as a scapegoat

You fool, keep quiet there, HE GOAT.

Other yeyebrities that think they can talk anyhow will learn.

Looks like publicity stunt to become popular

He pulled same with UK police

Marlians!!! Simi see trouble, am I a yahoo boy?

Trumped up charges. With a good lawyer, he’s as good as free. They have charged him in the media and painted the whole process as a publicity charade. Can’t remember the last time ‘music’ passed as a probable cause to arrest an individual on suspicion of fraud. After all he’s not the first to use music to glorify crimes and vices in Nigeria. Too many individuals are stealing the country dry, tarnishing it’s image and getting away with it.

Using Naira Marley as a scapegoat is not a deterrence against Internet Fraud but an ATTACK on FREE SPEECH. The message is not to stop yahoo but to scare those who want to sing/joke and be comical about it.

I don’t condone it. It is terrible for the country's image BUT again SPEECH should never be probable cause.

His music sucks by the way.

Don't throw stones if you live in a glass house. And if you drink from a glass jaw, you should watch your mouth.
