 Setting the Records Straight on  Citizen Asar Michael Sesugh's  Death The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,  EFCC,  considered it imperative to clear the air on some recent incidents at its Makurdi Zonal Directorate,  Benue State.   Operatives of the Directorate arrested 26 suspected cyber fraudsters on April 28,  2026.  They were profiled and kept in custody for further investigations after obtaining a Remand Order at a Magistrate Court.  Shortly after their arrest,  specifically on May 4,  2026,  three of the suspects sought permission to use the lavatory at the Directorate's  Holding Facility and were permitted.   They cashed in on the opportunity,  broke the toilet's roof and escaped from detention.  Several efforts were made to re- arrest them to no avail.

Excavators uncover $1 million in gold coins from Spanish shipwreck off Florida’s ‘Treasure Coast’ 

Beneath the turquoise waters off Florida’s famed “Treasure Coast,” divers from a shipwreck salvage team have uncovered a haul of long-lost Spanish treasure valued at roughly $1 million.

The team recovered more than 1,000 silver and gold coins this summer along the Atlantic coast, believed to have been minted in the Spanish colonies of Bolivia, Mexico, and Peru. Centuries ago, the fortune was being transported back to Spain when a hurricane sank the 1715 Fleet on July 31, spilling treasures into the ocean. Over the years, salvagers have retrieved millions of dollars in gold coins from wrecks along the coast between Melbourne and Fort Pierce. Some of the newly recovered coins still bear visible dates and mint marks, offering historians and collectors valuable insights. Sal Guttuso, director of operations for the salvage company, described the find as “both rare and extraordinary,” noting each coin connects modern observers to the people of the Spanish Empire’s Golden Age. Florida law stipulates that historic artifacts found in state waters belong to the state, though recovery teams may be permitted to excavate, with roughly 20% of materials retained for research or public display.
