The Nigeria Police Force has released skit maker and prankster, Zion Ubani (aka Zfancy), on bail after his arrest on July 4 for prank videos that allegedly depicted heinous crimes, including rape. The Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, confirmed that Zfancy was released to the Practitioners of Content Creation, Skit-Making and Influencers Guild of Nigeria (PCCSIGN) executives, led by Tokoni Peter Igoin, Special Assistant to the President on ICT Development and Digital Innovation.
The police found the videos to be scripted and warned Zfancy to avoid pranks that could cause public unrest. The NPF encourages responsible social media use and creativity among youths, avoiding misinformation that may incite public disorder.
