Nigerian musician Portable issues a warning to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), urging the agency to refrain from unfairly targeting innocent youths regarding their sources of wealth.
During an interview on Assorted Podcast, the outspoken artist criticizes the EFCC for allegedly intimidating and apprehending innocent youths under the guise of combating cybercrime.
Portable emphasizes the misconception surrounding the youth population, especially their involvement in activities like internet fraud, commonly referred to as Yahoo Yahoo in Nigeria.
The musician asserts that not all young individuals pursuing lucrative ventures are engaged in cybercrime, cautioning against making sweeping assumptions that link every successful youth to fraudulent activities.
According to Portable, numerous young people are genuinely hustling and striving for success through legitimate means.
Expressing dissatisfaction with law enforcement agencies' indiscriminate targeting of young Nigerians, Portable calls on the EFCC to exercise caution and discernment in its operations, rather than unfairly labeling every young person as a criminal.
