    Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Monday arrested ten suspected illegal miners in Ogbomoso, Oyo State.

    The suspects are Yunusa Adisa, Ganiyu Kazeem, Muideen Babayemi, Sulaiman Usman, Adeleke Waliu, Tiamiyu Rokeeb, Olusola Sunday, Oyedokun Oluwagbemiga, Sulaimon Ishiaq, and Olufimihan Eniola.

    A statement on Monday by the EFCC’s spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, said the suspects were arrested with six trucks fully loaded with lithium.

    He added that the suspects would be arraigned in court after an investigation into the matter.

    Oyewale said, “Operatives of the Ibadan Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission have arrested ten suspected illegal miners in Ogbomoso, Oyo State.

    “The arrests followed credible intelligence on their suspected involvement in the illegal extraction of solid mineral resources in the state, especially lithium, and their evacuation to unknown destinations.

    “The suspects will be charged to court upon the conclusion of investigations.”
