Zfancy has been arrested by police over staged ritual prank

The controversial prankster Zfancy has been confirmed to have been arrested by the Nigeria Police Force for setting up a money ritual prank involving two ladies.

This began after a fake plea for help on social media from a user who claimed that she was booked. In the middle of the rush to rescue the lady who was allegedly being held captive, Zfacny, the prankster, acknowledged that he had staged the prank to regain his fame after a gap of more than a year.

The Police confirmed his apprehension and restated their dedication to safeguarding the security of Nigerian citizens, cautioning against the potential consequences of specific actions.

Police statement on arrest of Zfancy

“POLICE SPEAKS TOUGH ON SECURITY-THREATENING PRANKS, ARRESTS PRANKSTER IN ABUJA

The Nigeria Police Force, through the NPF National Cybercrime Centre, has arrested a Nigerian ‘prankster’, one Mr. Ubani Zion Chibuike (AKA ZFancy), at an apartment in Wuye, Abuja. This arrest follows the circulation of accusatory videos on social media, in which ZFancy was alleged to have committed heinous crimes, including rape. These videos caused significant apprehension among social media users.

Furthermore, ZFancy came out and claimed the videos were scripted and part of his attempt to regain the spotlight after a break. Regardless, such actions have serious implications and can not be taken lightly. The Nigeria Police Force remains committed to maintaining public safety and ensuring that individuals are held accountable for actions that incite fear or disturb public peace.

The Police therefore warns pranksters and content creators to be law-abiding and be conscious of pranks and contents that could pose threats to the public and jeopardise the general security of our country. We urge the public to remain calm as we proceed with the necessary legal actions in this case.

ACP OLUMUYIWA ADEJOBI
