Nigerian YouTuber Emdee Tiamiyu, based in the United Kingdom, has been arrested on allegations of fraud, sparking controversy and speculation over his recent financial activities.
Tiamiyu gained notoriety after a BBC interview where he made remarks about Nigerian students in the UK, suggesting that some were exploiting the student visa system for work and family relocation purposes rather than academic pursuits. This interview reportedly influenced the UK government’s decision to impose restrictions on Nigerian students, particularly concerning family visas.
In a twist of events, Tiamiyu is now accused of defrauding the UK government of £160,000. The funds, designated for resettlement purposes, allegedly went towards constructing a house in his native Ogun State, Nigeria, instead of their intended use.
The UK government’s allocation of resettlement funds was meant to support Tiamiyu’s integration and financial stability within the country, especially after his asylum claim following the controversial interview.
As of now, there has been no official statement from the UK government regarding Tiamiyu’s arrest or the specific fraud allegations. The situation has raised concerns about bilateral relations and the reputation of the international student community in the UK.
