Naira Crash: EFCC Raids BDCs In Abuja, To Extend Operation To Lagos, Portharcourt, Others

“The raid was a product of weeks of surveillance where agents of the EFCC monitored the activities of most of the bureaux de change operators in the Wuse 4 axis,’’ said the source.

The source, according to NAN, said enough intelligence was gathered that some people with massive naira inflow had mobilized resources and were buying up available foreign currency, especially the dollar.

“Similar operation has also been carried out at major airports in the country.

“It’s a nationwide coordinated operation and will be extended to major commercial cities of Kano, Lagos, and Port Harcourt,’’ he added.
