Operatives of the Ilorin Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, arrested 28 suspected internet fraudsters in Ilorin, Kwara State.
The arrests followed credible intelligence linking the suspects to cybercrime activities across the state capital. The suspects were apprehended in the Tanke, University Road, Oshin, and Agbabiaka areas.
During the sting operation, seven exotic cars — including a latest-model Toyota Corolla and a Lexus — two motorcycles, as well as expensive phones and laptops believed to be tools of the suspects’ illicit activities, were recovered.
The suspects will be arraigned in court upon the conclusion of ongoing investigations.
