Obasempire reports that the National Cybercrime Centre of the Nigeria Police Force has apprehended Zfancy, a well-known prankster, amidst allegations related to threatening video content.

The arrest, disclosed by Force Public Relations Officer ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi on Thursday, marks a pivotal moment in the ongoing investigation.
