Rapper Oladips Says EFCC Collected ₦10 Million Before Releasing Him
Popular Nigerian singer, Oladips, has accused the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) of collecting ₦10 million from him.
The rapper disclosed this in his latest interview on the Trending podcast.
The revelation comes nearly a year after he was arrested by EFCC during a midnight raid at his estate.
The singer was arrested, along with some of his neighbours, for alleged fraud in November 2024.
He was released after spending five days in detention.
Speaking about his experience with the EFCC, Oladips stated that nothing was found on him after the EFCC investigations
While revealing that the EFCC collected ₦10 million from him before his release, he lamented that “Nigeria just happened to me”.
He said “It’s just one smelling place like that. They just packed us there like sardines and they gave us nonsense food. Funny enough it was Zlatan that was sending me food. Zlatan is not even a friend, that’s my blood.
“He was sending someone to buy good food for me because the food there is bad. They just packed us there like sardines. I’m not even supposed to be there first of all. Like, why did I spend four to five days there when you people (EFCC) didn’t find anything on me, not even a single thing. And they still collect ₦10 million from me before they released me.”
When asked “Is it a thing you can take up against the EFCC later, or you will just allow the sleeping dog lie?”, the singer responded “Who is my father?”
“Who is my father now? At the end of the day, who is my father? It’s just me and my truth. It’s not something I will want to. I don’t just know how the system works. I for dey their page now if to say I dey do Yahoo. They didn’t find anything on me. If they are watching this, they know that I’m saying the truth.
“They collected money from me before they released me. They didn’t find anything on me. So, what was the money for? What was all that stress and suffering for? It’s just Nigeria. Nigeria just happened to me.”
