Popular Nigerian rapper Oladipupo Olabode Oladimeji, better known as Oladips, has revealed that he was arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for alleged tax evasion.

“Nigeria just happened to me because it was just a normal night and EFCC entered my estate. I mean it’s a big estate and they were just going from house to house arresting people. I was inside my house. It was about 3am.
