The Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) has declared
Instagram celebrity Oluwasegun
Opaogun better known as Opa6ix and
four others wanted for Internet-
related fraud and other allegations.
In its wanted list on Thursday, the
EFCC shared photos of Opa6ix,
Solomon Efosa, Emeka Ayaunor and
Barnabas Akojie, accusing them of
other crimes such as criminal
conspiracy and obtaining money by
false pretence.
“The public is hereby notified that
Opaogun Oluwasegun Akinola whose
photograph appears above is wanted
by the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) in a case of
Conspiracy, Computer Related Fraud
and Obtaining Money under False
Pretence,” the anti-graft agency said.
Opasix, a native of Abeokuta, Ogun
State and also the owner of 6ix
Empire record label has over the
years been praised by hip-hop artists
in Nigeria, the most prominent being
Olamide.
In November 2019, the commission
said it would need a petition to
commence probe against Opasix,
Hushpuppi, Baddy Osha, and others
after a suggestion by a Twitter user.
This followed the release of a hit
track titled ‘Living Things’ by
indigenous singer, 9ice who hailed
the socialites including Ismailia
Mustapha (Mompha) who was
accused of fraud.
The user identified as @onlydotcom,
said “EFCC, sit down and listen to the
song, Living Things, by 9ice and do
your work with the fear of God.
Nigeria will be better for it.”
In its response, the EFCC tweeted, “Do
you mean that (song) could be a
petition? Not enough anyway.
