Men of the Nigerian Army have arrested four young men suspected of engaging in internet fraud commonly known as ‘Yahoo Yahoo’.
The soldiers apprehended the suspects in their base of operations, as part of the fresh efforts to clampdown on yahoo boys across the country.
In a video posted on social media, the uniformed men could be seen interrogating the four alleged yahoo boys who had already been stripped to their undergarment.
They asked one of the boys to demonstrate how they conduct their scam using a laptop and phone found in the possession of the suspects. The army men also warned yahoo boys to desist from the act, noting that if they fail to do so, the soldiers will fish them out.
The clip caption reads; “If una no stop yahoo, we dey come for you. God bless Nigeria army forever.”

The Alfa’s brother simply identified as Hamzat cried out after the soldiers allegedly invaded his block factory and seized his Toyota RAV 4 vehicle.
He said; “After my brother introduced him to another Alfa for special prayer, maybe he was duped (or he didn’t get the expected returns after payment), I don’t know. My brother also said he did not know what transpired between the boy and the other Alfa.
“On Tuesday, I was called by someone that some people were at my block factory and they wanted to buy blocks. So I rushed down. I told the person the price of my blocks. In the course of that, I just saw some soldiers coming into the estate. They came to me and said they wanted to see me. I asked them what happened, but they started grabbing me.
“When I looked into their car, I saw the guy I introduced to my brother and his sister, who is my girlfriend. Then the soldiers said I should follow them. They said they would drive my car with them, but I refused, I said I couldn’t give them my car key but I would drive along with them since I did not steal or commit any crime.”
