Rapper Zlatan Ibile has spoken out for the first time since his arrest by the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) for alleged internet fraud crimes.

The rapper revealed in an exclusive Interview with Fuzeng, events that led to their arrest and how EFCC came to his house to arrest him, Naira Marley and two others.

Zlatan explained that they were all preparing for Naira’s birthday on the day they got arrested.

He recalled how tired he was on that day and as a result, went to bed quite early only to be woken by a loud knock on his door.

When he looked out the window, he saw men in red jackets who came into the house and took their laptops and phones.

Zlatan explained why he had to stay in EFCC custody for a few days before being released on bail.

“They said they wanted to search our phones and our Laptops and everything… and then if we do not have anything implicating, then we’d be free to go.

They made all their researches. When there was nothing on my phones and my laptop. I was able to sleep.

They could not grant bail from Friday until Monday. Because they said Saturday and Sunday is not a working day for them.

So they don’t grant bails during weekends. So we had to sleep till Monday” he said.

He denied allegations that he is involved in cyber crime. He said he was not a yahoo boy, he was only an entertainer.
