Two suspected members of a cybercrime syndicate who specialise in impersonating government officials on Facebook have been arrested by operatives of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC).
Commandant of the FCT command, Olusola Odumosu, who paraded the suspects on Tuesday, April 30, said they opened a fake Facebook account in his name to swindle Nigerians of their hard-earned money.

The suspects have been identified as Henry Ushie Odep, male, 34 years…
