EFCC denies invading Skales’ house, seeks evidence

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has debunked claims that the operatives invaded the home of singer, John Njeng-Ngeng popularly known as Skales.

WAKADAILY earlier report that the singer had called out EFCC for raidings his house with guns and hammers.

Skales via his X page on Tuesday morning wrote, “So #officialEFCC pulled up to my house with 3 men with guns and some with sticks and hammers lol, they broke my back door while I was sleeping on the bed with my 6month old daughter, imagine I had a panic attack Cz of my health issues…. Is this not a crime?”

However, in a phone call with Punch, EFCC spokesman, Dale Oyewale described the report as fake, noting that officials of the anti-graft agency do not operate in such a manner.

Oyewale said, “Number 1, we don’t invade. Number 2, we don’t conduct any raids. Number 3, there are ways and rules to identify a regular EFCC operative.

“So, to all intents and purposes, all of his claims, they are totally removed from what an EFCC operation looks like.”

The EFCC spokesperson claimed that the incident might be an allegation, as the invaders could be impersonators of the EFCC roaming around.

According to him, “People can make allegations but the authenticity of the allegation viz a viz the reality on the ground concerning any organisation you’re talking about is important.

“There are impersonations all around, all over the place. So, they are not. We are very polite. We don’t do all those things.”

Oyewale further called on the singer to show evidence of his claims.

“And I will want him to come forward, if he has photo evidence or video evidence, to show that’s it’s an EFCC thing, because we don’t have such things.”
