“The suspects are often not seen during the day and often move out at night everyday to have fun with friends.This is coming after we reported that 22 Nigerian yahoo boys (internet fraudsters), were arrested by the Ghanaian Police at their hideout at Oyarifa in Accra.
Police also discovered that the suspects do not work but lead lavish lifestyles in the area. This prompted the police to raid the said house to arrest the suspects”.
It was also gathered that the driver of the Nigerian yahoo boys, believed to be an accomplice was also arrested.
The Ghanaian Police who told newsmen that they are processing the suspects for court, said the suspects will be repatriated in coming days which they believe is in the right direction to reduce the level of crime in the country.
