Popular Nigerian businessman and nightlife promoter, Cubana Chief Priest, has advised people not to “run” when invited by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
In an Instagram post on Thursday, Cubana lavished the commission with praises. He told the public that no matter where they “hide”, the EFCC will always catch up with them.
He also said the commission does not “bite or beat”, adding that they only “investigate and prosecute”.
“The eagle will always fly so high to catch you wherever you hide. No need to run when @officialefcc invites you. Just pull up and answer them, they don’t bite, they don’t beat. They only investigate and prosecute,” he wrote
“For their cell bed dey, toilet and bathroom dey. Even breakfast, lunch and dinner is served, so tell me why you are running? How long will you run? Na big man location EFCC be. For me it’s a status symbol.”
