Operatives of the Benin Zonal Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have arrested Irabor Kennedy Osasogie for alleged fraud.
The 21-years old suspect was arrested by the Commission, following a petition by Antje, a German citizen, complaining that the suspect defrauded her of €17,000.
The petitioner claimed that she met Osasogie through social media after she was defrauded of €68,000 by Michael Patrick. She alleged that Osasogie offered to assist her in recovering the money but further defrauded her of €17,000.
Upon arrest, the suspect claimed he only received €12,850 from the petitioner.
Confirming the development, the EFCC’s Head of Media and Publicity, Mr Wilson Uwujaren, also disclosed that the suspect will soon be charged to court, once investigation is concluded.
