The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested a musician, Naira Marley, popularly known as Afeez Fashola.
The singer fond of supporting antics of Internet fraudsters called Yahoo boys is currently being questioned at the EFFC office in Lagos.
‘Premium Times’ said a top source in the EFCC confirmed Marley’s arrest although the commission has not spoken on the matter.
Perhaps coincidentally, Naira Marley released the official video of his hit track, ‘Am I A Yahoo Boy’ featuring Zlatan on Thursday.
Naira Marley, during a recent Instagram live session, urged Nigerians to pray for internet fraudsters (Yahoo boys) saying they were the reason money circulates to the common man.
He said: “All you guys, all the money in your pockets, all the money you spend, you think it’s the government that is making the money go round?”
The video has since stirred reactions from Nigerians who described Marley as a disgrace and bad example to young Nigerians.
However, a few Nigerians have supported Marley, saying that Yahoo boys were the reason some Nigerians can eat and survive.
The singer is popular for his 2017 hit song titled ’It’s a goal.’
