Nigerian comedian, Nwagbo Chidera Oliver, popularly known as, Pankeeroy, has been released from the EFCC’s net, following an allegation that he was involved in Bitcoin scam.
After being released, he broke his silence as he denied being involved in any fraudulent activity. His statement reads:
“I refused to eat or drink water for two days while I was in custody. I was still in shock of the arrest. It was like the end of the world for me. I only ate on the third day that they allowed my mother to see me.
“Though, I was not maltreated, it was still a surprise to me. As I am talking to you, they have not charged me with any case. It was a matter of being at the wrong place at the wrong time. All the stories of Bitcoin and cars flying around are all rumours. I was arrested in the company of 34 others. Those things were recovered from others but we had a group picture with them before they separated us. They were not mine. I can defend it anywhere, none of those things was recovered from me; nothing was seized from me. Nevertheless, it was an experience I will never forget. It was like a dream till I found out that it was real. Since then, I have not been to work but I promise to be back soon.”
