Nigeria has deported 50 Chinese nationals and one Tunisian convicted of cyber-terrorism and internet fraud, in a major crackdown on foreign-led cybercrime networks.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), which announced the deportations on Thursday, said they were carried out in collaboration with the Nigeria Immigration Service.

EFCC spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, disclosed that since the clampdown began on August 15, a total of 102 foreign offenders have been deported.

According to Oyewale, the Tunisian and Chinese nationals were among nearly 200 foreigners arrested in Lagos, Nigeria’s commercial hub, during a raid on one of the country’s largest cybercrime syndicates.

The crackdown follows previous operations, including a major bust late last year when the EFCC apprehended almost 800 suspects in a Lagos building believed to be a fraud hub. Investigators said the group lured victims with fake romance offers and tricked them into investing in fraudulent cryptocurrency schemes.

The EFCC said the latest operation underscores Nigeria’s renewed commitment to dismantling cybercrime networks and protecting both local and international victims of online fraud.
