A viral video has emerged showing operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) forcibly breaking into homes in Makurdi, Benue State. The footage, obtained by Ejes Gist News and shared by investigative journalist @PIDOMNIGERIA on X, has sparked significant public outcry.
The video depicts EFCC operatives aggressively breaking into various residences, a scene described as increasingly lawless by many viewers. @PIDOMNIGERIA, in their post, condemned the actions of the EFCC, highlighting the troubling trend of such invasive operations.
“EFCC operatives caught on camera breaking into people’s homes in Makurdi, Benue State. The lawlessness of EFCC is now taking another dimension,” wrote @PIDOMNIGERIA. “The most annoying thing about these break-ins is that some of the occupants are not even at home. EFCC operatives can just invade your house, pull down your doors, and break in without a warrant or court order.”
The video and accompanying post have amplified concerns about the overreach of EFCC operatives, with many questioning the legality and ethics of their methods. The lack of warrants or court orders during these operations has especially alarmed citizens, who fear their privacy and security are being grossly violated.
As this issue continues to unfold, it raises serious questions about the conduct and accountability of the EFCC, urging a closer examination of their operational protocols.
