The officials from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) launched a raid on the Annex and Regional hotels located in Isashi, Ojo, Lagos State.
CCTV footage from the scene captured the moment the anti-graft agency operatives assaulted the hotel manager and other guests, both men and women.
According to Pidom Nigeria, the officials allegedly stole ATM cards, money, and phones.

They broke into rooms, assaulted guests and workers, stole ATM cards, money and phones. Shot sporadically at guests, injured innocent customers, and arrested lots of people. Nigeria is a Banana Republic.
βFor clarity, the room they broke into in this CCTV footage belongs to workers and staff of the hotel. The person in there is the manager, whom they assaulted.
βShe heard their noise and woke up from sleep by past 4:am. Only for them to break into the room and they started assaulting her. They did the same thing to most of the guests. They beat and assaulted many of them. Both women and men. The camera was installed in the workers general room by the management of the hotel, so workers donβt sell out the room, or engage in acts the hotel is against, or even smuggle things in there. Itβs just for sleeping, but the convenience has no camera.
βThey will definitely come out to deny this video, or claim the persons on the CCTV footage are not EFCC officials. See them leaving with guests they illegally arrested here. They are still in EFCC office in Lagos. Letβs wait for their group mugshot anytime soon with liesβ.
