The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Lagos Zonal Office, has arrested one Darlington John Irmahia for alleged internet fraud. Darlington, 26, a graduate of Fine and Applied Art, was arrested on Tuesday, August 8, 2019, at a restaurant in Lekki, Lagos.

EFCC Head, Media and Publicity, Wilson Uwujaren, said on Monday in a statement that operatives of the anti-graft agency in an earlier operation had seized a vehicle allegedly belonging to Irmahia who fled the scene, abandoning his vehicle. In an attempt to retrieve the vehicle, through a proxy, luck ran out of him when the operatives denied the proxy access to the car and trailed him to a restaurant where the suspect was arrested.

“At the point of arrest, fraudulent documents, and phonographic videos were recovered. The suspect would soon be arraigned in court.”
