🇳🇬 25 Nigerian nationals arrested for cyber fraud at Dodowa In Ghana 🇬🇭.
The Cyber Security Authority (CSA), in a coordinated multi-agency operation with the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) and the Police Cybercrime Unit, has dismantled a sophisticated 🇳🇬 Nigerian cyber fraud syndicate operating from Sasaabi, a community along the Dodowa road in the Greater Accra Region.
The raid, carried out on Thursday, July 3, 2025, involved a 12-member tactical police team led jointly by the Director of Operations of the Cybercrime unit of the Ghana Police Service and some senior CSA officials. The operation resulted in the arrest of 25 Nigerian nationals, all of whom were suspected of involvement in large-scale cybercrime activities.
The joint operation team confiscated over 40 laptops and 25 mobile phones, believed to have been used in orchestrating financial fraud schemes targeting victims both in Ghana and abroad.
The operation was triggered by a distress report received by the Computer Emergency Response Team – Ghana (CERT-GH) from a Nigerian national who claimed he was being held against his will and coerced into engaging in cyber fraud.
The whistleblower provided his mother’s contact information in Nigeria 🇳🇬, through which his identity was confirmed. Subsequent checks by the CSA’s Law Enforcement Liaison Unit revealed that the individual had been officially declared missing in Nigeria. He alleged that about 20 other individuals were similarly being exploited, prompting urgent cross-border intelligence coordination.
The arrested individuals are currently in police custody as authorities carry out further interrogations and digital forensics on the seized equipment. Investigators are also probing for potential links to larger international cybercrime syndicates.
Note 📝: This is the reason why
🇬🇭 Ghanaians do not want them to have any Igbo community only for themselves in Ghana. Because we know that if we allow them, they will transform the whole village or community into an headquarter of c.r.i.m.i.n.a.l.s. Not all of them are bad, though, but the vast majority are not to be trusted and mess around with. Pan-Africanism does not mean transporting banditry into your neighbours house and expects him to be quiet about it just because we are all Blacks or Africans. We should call a spade a spade.
