Former security men cum entertainers, Happie Boiz, have been reportedly arrested in Cyprus.

A source told 9News Nigeria that three of boys were arrested and arraigned in court yesterday and thereafter were remanded in prison.

Although details of their arrest and detention is still sketchy as at the time of filing this report, 9NEWS NIGERIA recalls that boys made news earlier this month after they called out clergyman, Apostle Ugochinyere, who sent them on scholarship to Cyprus.

The boys claimed the clergyman abandoned them in the foreign land, stating that he gave them money for the first six months after arriving Cyprus and had since stopped assisting them financially.

In his defence, the clergyman said he stopped sending them money due to the unavailability of dollars in Nigeria and had suggested to the boys to return home to continue their education in Nigeria or Benin Republic.
