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.
