Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC,  have arrested a four-man syndicate of alleged fraudsters impersonating and blackmailing  the Executive Chairman of the Commission, Mr. Ola Olukoyede in a $1million deal.

The fraudsters: Ojobo Joshua, Aliyu Hashim, Thomas Oduh and Paul Ogiji were arrested on Wednesday,  August 28, 2024, at Gimbiya Street, Garki and Apo Legislative Quarters,  Abuja.

The alleged fraudsters contacted a former Managing Director of the Nigeria Port Authority, NPA, Mr. Mohammed Bello-Koko claiming his indictment in some phony investigative activities of the EFCC during his tenure as the MD of NPA.

They would be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded.
