This is even as the Nigeria Police Force paraded four of the many suspects arrested in 2024.

The four suspects arrested include Douglass Victor, Egbo Efe Martins, Lucky Adesunloye and Ndifreke Joseph Moody.

While parading the suspects, the Force PRO, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said, “In the year 2024, the Nigeria Police Force National Cybercrime Center (NPF-NCCC) successfully recovered a staggering N8,821,001,881.80, 115,237.91 USDT, and $84,000.

“These significant amounts have been restituted to the victims of cybercrime, reaffirming the commitment of the Force to protecting citizens and ensuring justice for those affected by fraudulent activities.”

Similarly, in the past year, the cybercrime unit has actively engaged in strategic operations, resulting in the arrests and prosecutions of over 751 individuals involved in cybercrime.

The unit also recovered a total of 685 devices that were used in these nefarious activities, which include 467 mobile phones, 137 laptops and computers, 46 routers, 4 servers, one drone, and four Starlink devices.

“ Additionally, the operations led to the confiscation of 16 houses, 39 plots of land, 14 land documents, and 26 vehicles, further dismantling the infrastructure supporting cybercriminal activities,” the Force PRO stated.

He also added that in recognition of its outstanding performance and dedication, the NPF-NCCC has been awarded the title of the best cybercrime unit in Africa for 2024 by the INTERPOL Cybercrime Directorate based in Singapore, securing the top position among 54 participating African countries.

“These achievements reflect the dedication of the Nigeria Police Force to fighting cybercrime and enhancing the safety of citizens in the digital space,” he added.
