 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.

 Australia bans social media for under-16s in world-first move

 Australia has implemented a sweeping ban on social media use for children under 16, marking a world-first move aimed at curbing teenage addiction to platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.

Under the new rules, social media companies and popular websites face fines of up to AU$49.5 million ($33 million) if they allow underage users to maintain accounts. The government says the measures are necessary to shield children from harmful content, including bullying, sexual material, and online predators. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese emphasized that social media “is often used as a weapon for bullies, a platform for peer pressure, a driver of anxiety, and a tool for online predators.”

The law, effective Wednesday, immediately blocks hundreds of thousands of teenagers from accessing the apps they used daily. Platforms affected include Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat, Reddit, Twitch, Kick, Threads, and X. Parents and advocates have largely welcomed the ban, citing concerns over mental health risks and tragic cases of cyberbullying.

Experts note that research links excessive social media use to negative impacts on teen well-being, though isolating its effects from other lifestyle factors remains challenging. While some parents see the ban as a long-overdue safeguard, tech-savvy teens worldwide are watching Australia’s experiment closely, with some expressing frustration about losing access to key social networks.

Social media companies have criticized the ban as rushed and have indicated plans to comply while exploring legal challenges. Platforms will be responsible for verifying users’ ages, using methods such as AI-based photo analysis or government ID uploads. The list of banned platforms may evolve, with some apps like Roblox, Pinterest, and WhatsApp currently exempt but under government review.

Australia’s move is likely to influence global debates on youth internet safety, with countries such as New Zealand and Malaysia considering similar restrictions. While authorities acknowledge the ban is not foolproof, it sets a significant precedent in regulating social media’s impact on young users.
