The agency concerned with combating corruption in Nigeria announced on Thursday that 50 Chinese and Tunisian were condemned by electronic terrorism and online fraud, as part of a campaign on electronic crime networks led by foreign parties.
Daily Owaali, a spokesperson for the Economic and Financial Crime Committee, said in a statement that 102 people have been deported, since the committee launched its campaign in partnership with the Immigration Affairs Agency on August 15.
He added that the Chinese and the Tunisian are among about 200 foreigners who were arrested in Lagos, the commercial capital of Nigeria, during a raid targeting one of the largest e -crime gangs in the country.
Late last year, the committee arrested nearly 800 people inside a building in Lagos, believed to be a center for those who lured their victims through romantic offers, then asked them to hand over their money to invest in fake encrypted currencies.
