Popular Nigerian singer, Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, better known as Skales, has accused the operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) of oppressing him.

VerseNews gathered that the ‘Shake Body’ crooner had called out the EFCC weeks ago for breaking into his house and wrongly accused him of being a fraudster.

Speaking in the latest episode of the Terms & Conditions podcast, Skales said he and his family now live in perpetual fear following the recent invasion of his residence.

Skales further said his artiste, who was arrested during the raid, is still in custody, and the EFCC are using power to oppress people.

He added that he is scared of his life but still moves about freely because he is clean.

He said, “The EFCC operatives that invaded my house didn’t have a search warrant. Obviously, they were illegal.

“My problem with the EFCC guys is not even the fact that they are not doing what they were paid for.

“They are now using the power to oppress people. They are oppressing me right now. I am scared for my life, I won’t lie to you. I’m scared but at the same time, I know I’m clean, that’s why I’m moving around.”
