Mr Ibrahim Magu, the acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has lamented that mothers of cyber fraudsters, popularly known as Yahoo boys, are now organising themselves into an association.

Magu, who addressed journalists at the Lagos office of the commission in Ikoyi, Lagos on Thursday, said such parents always justify their children’s activities with the arguments that they were supporting their families in the place of irresponsible, runaway or dead fathers.

Magu said the EFCC’s interest was not just to arrest the Yahoo boys but also to see to their rehabilitation.

In recent time the Commission has launched a massive onslaught against the cyber fraudsters with arrests taking place across virtually every part of the country. (New Telegraph)
