Charly Boy confessed to engaging in fraudulent activities with banks even before the infamous 419 fraud became widespread in Nigeria.

In the podcast, he candidly admitted, “I was involved in scamming banks. Even before the widespread emergence of 419, I was already involved in that to some extent.”

When Nedu probed further, Charly Boy confirmed that he indeed successfully conducted such activities.

Charly Boy elaborated on his personal life by revealing that he became a father at the young age of 16.
