‘They’re to report on Monday’ – EFCC confirms invitation of Okoya’s sons for questioning.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has summoned Wahab and Raheem Okoya, the sons of billionaire businessman Chief Razaq Okoya, for questioning over alleged naira abuse.
EFCC spokesperson Mr. Dele Oyewale confirmed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Saturday in Abuja.
“Yes, they have been invited; the two children, Wahab and Raheem Okoya, are expected to report to the commission’s Lagos office for questioning on Monday. They are to report to the Head, Special Operations Team, at the 15A Awolowo Road Office of the commission by 10 a.m. on Monday,” he said.
According to NAN, the brothers appeared in a video flaunting and spraying bundles of N1,000 notes as part of a promotional clip for Raheem’s new song, “Credit Alert.”
The video showed the brothers, dressed in white traditional attire, dancing while a mobile policeman held stacks of crisp naira notes, which they threw into the air.
The act, widely seen as a violation of the law, sparked backlash on social media. Many Nigerians criticized the display, with some expressing concerns about whether they would be held accountable due to their father’s influence.
