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.

If you can't comprehend what he was charged for



That's nobody's fault!

Do you know what the government does to popular fraudsters?
They inject them in prison and they die in maximum of 5 years.

How do you think Ajudua died?

Yes I was there when it all happened. Mumu

‘Killing is Good’ isn’t the same as ‘I’m a killer’ and sure isn’t ground to arrest me for homicide.

Free Speech is fundamental to you.

Keeping your mouth shut didn’t free your forefathers from colonialism. It sure won’t free today’s youth from poverty and lack of opportunities.

Sing it.

Chant it.

Cry it.

Till they can’t sustain the system. Then maybe they’d understand that Nigeria is a ticking time bomb.

so the idiot is not only glorifying scam, he's also an active member.

the fact that 80% of Naija youths are Yahoo boyz and 80% of the girls are prostitute, runz girls or whateva they call em selves. Like davido said, no one is a saint. Arresting is not the solution, the problem is greater than naija itself. i remember when yahoo yahoo was just coming out in nigeria, when we hear yahoo boy then, it was like we were hearing ritualist, we were scared of the name then, we ran from them. look at us now everyone wants to be known as a yahoo boy, even those than cant even turn on a laptop or know what western union is, would be shouting "am a yahoo boy" everywhere. big mouthed people. oyibo people that sell the bins/dumps/cc/bank logs, you dont see them parading themselves. after when you mouth put cardboard for ur neck, you go say na village people when your mouth alone na 20 people village. abi you think say davido nor get HK? #aira Marley #saynotoyahoo #and stop dating all these gold digging b*tches!!! make hunger kill them.

Looks like publicity stunt to become popular

He pulled same with UK police

That one na music video , now he is in real soup

Water don dey pass him garri

Next time he go get brake for mouth

Alright. Let’s solve this once and for all.

Probable cause:
reasonable grounds (for making a search, pressing a charge, etc.).
"warrants allow police to detain people, but not handcuff and search them without probable cause"


What could have been probable cause in his cause? Suspicion based on music?

Also the charges? The cards are not his but we’re found on his computer. He can’t do time for this. Unless they just wanna scapegoat him for media sake (which is unjust)

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".

Gbam!!!!!. Chop better knuckle boss!!!

some verse in his music am I a Yahoo boy ft zaltan. Come to my mind that said

Wonfesemi bi Mandela

Wonfesemi bi abiola.


Now it come true let see how they will do you so upcoming Yahoo boy can use your story to sing?

Waste of time. To secure a credit card conviction the owners have to come and prove that their cards were indeed used and have the card company corroborate it. Anything other than that is a waste of time.
But this is naija sha, an outpost of hell fire where anything is possible.

But his charges showed what was found AFTER HE WAS ARRESTED.

EVIDENCE OF CRIME FOUND AFTER ILLEGAL ARREST IS INADMISSIBLE IN THE COURT OF LAW.

Without being privy to the arrest warrant, you are simply making assumptions...

I don’t need it. I’m okay. It’s can’t keep my light on.

But if your authorities fail to go after the real YAHOO guys driving on your streets and flashing their proceeds, they will only end up with clamping down on the wrong folks using the wrong tactics (bottom of the barrel). Real corruption wars are won in the court rooms with quality legal teams, and advanced policing systems.

virgoquin:
Be like David don japa for the matter sef.

He un followed one of them on IG already, see wetin he mouth push am enter.

He will be used as a scapegoat for others to see

Who did he unfollow?

His management team must have told him to thread carefully. He's already into opposition politics, he doesn't need more attention from a few senseless children's misadventures.

GrabHisBalls:
His fine is 5m, surety/sureties would pay a like amount. Let's say 10m will get him out. You'll be shocked he doesn't have that amount in his account. I hope Davido, or his followers raise a fund for him.

Why do you people act like you didn't see where they said "the person will loose all his proceeds from the crime as well"...You can as well sell all you got to go. Bail him... He will refund you when him hammer after few weeks.. Lol.. Use your head

Freedom of Speech is guaranteed,

Freedom after speech na the koko..

He has the right to brag about his criminal activities,

He should also be ready for the consequences..

America,with all their freedom of speech,

If you start ventilating on how you're going to blow up public properties,

The FBI is guaranteed to pay you a visit..

What is he SINGING and CHANTING and CRYING exactly ?

That he is a YAHOO BOY?

jaxxy:
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.

Even after realising the credit cards found in his possession

Real yahoo guys are out there, how many of them come out to beat their chest and scream out loud... HELLO WoRld, I Am A Yahoo Boy!

As if na him first do yahoo for the country making useless noise around.

Oga shut up and read, they found client names that he scammed

And does it say on the charge sheet filed before the court that he was arrested for the content of his music?

We are only seeing a tiny sliver of the entire charge sheet in this news report/press statement, but even the official charge sheet filed before a court would not necessarily set out the basis for his arrest. For that, you would likely have to see the warrant of arrest.
