The arrests were carried out by the commission’s Gombe Zonal Directorate on Saturday, following credible intelligence on the suspects’ alleged involvement in internet fraud.
This was contained in a statement released by the EFCC on Monday through their official X handle.
According to the statement, the operation took place in Kaure New Government Reservation Area (GRA) and Awala, Maiduguri Road, Bauchi.
