Singer John Njeng-Ngeng aka Skales claimed that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC)’s officers broke into his home, however the EFCC has refuted this claim.
According to reports, Skales claimed on social media on Tuesday morning that EFCC agents entered his home with weapons and hammers.
“So #officialEFCC pulled up to my house with 3 men with guns and some with sticks and hammers lol, they broke my back door while I was sleeping on the bed with my 6month old daughter, imagine I had a panic attack Cz of my health issues…. Is this not a crime?” he wrote
Dele Oyewale, the EFCC’s spokesman, emphasized that the anti-graft agency’s employees do not conduct themselves in this way during a phone conversation with Punch.
Oyewale said, “Number 1, we don’t invade. Number 2, we don’t conduct any raids. Number 3, there are ways and rules to identify a regular EFCC operative.
“So, to all intents and purposes, all of his claims, they are totally removed from what an EFCC operation looks like.”
He also noted that the incident might be an allegation, as the invaders could be impersonators of the EFCC roaming around.
