- Some students have taken to social media, sharing videos and alleging that the men broke into rooms and arrested some students
Men suspected to be operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission were said to have carried out a midnight operation at the Federal University of Technology, Akure, Ondo State.
Students’ lodges were reportedly invaded at about 2am.
Some students have taken to social media, sharing videos and alleging that the men broke into rooms and arrested some students.
Videos circulating on social media show broken window frames from what is believed to be an attempt at forced entry.
A man wearing the EFCC jacket was seen in one of the videos circulating online.
The Chairman of the EFCC, Ola Olukoyede, had in November ordered that sting operations at night be stopped.
He gave this directive after the arrest of suspected internet fraudsters in Ile-Ife, Osun State, by operatives of the EFCC which sparked nationwide backlash.
Meanwhile, as of the time of filling this report, EFCC was yet to comment or issue a statement on the report.
