EFCC arrests fake clergymen arrested for N70m fraud

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, may soon arraign one Ogunrinde Olushola Kayode and his co-travellers before a court of competent jurisdiction for allegedly defrauding one Ikechukwu Onita of over N70 million naira.

The suspect and his co-travellers allegedly approached Onita under the guise of being men of God, soothsayers and narrated to him his life challenges and predicaments which coincidentally corresponds to the situation and circumstances of his life at that time.




Worried about the revelations about him, the suspects convinced Onita that he could help him find solution to his problem. This led to the Onita travelling with them to Agbowa village in Ogun State where he was introduced to one Baba who further made startling revelations about him. Onita was allegedly hypnotised by the suspect which led to him paying money into the bank accounts of Ogunrinde Olushola Kayode and one Ojo Dada Lawrence at different occasion amounting to N70 million.

According to EFCC, the suspects will be arraigned in court as soon as investigation is completed
