[size=16pt]Maio Joe 2011 Gospel Music Awards Winner facing a lengthy prison term[/size]



Oluwamayola Ajayi, 31, of Sherman Gardens, Chadwell Heath, used dating website Match.com to ensnare four women using different names and identities.

In one case he sent email threats, purportedly from a captor, saying he had been kidnapped and demanding a ransom.

Ajayi was convicted of conspiracy to defraud after a trial and faces sentence later this week.

Snaresbrook Crown Court heard how Ajayi, who was nominated best international act at the 2011 Gospel Music Awards, gained the women’s trust before persuading them to hand over their savings to fund business enterprises

He insisted the cash would be repaid.

His victims, who all live in America and Canada, were “completely taken in” by his elaborate lies.

They were left humiliated and some were financially ruined by the scam, which ran between November 2009 and August 2010.

One victim handed over more than $125,000 (£78,662) from her late husband’s life savings and dead mother’s estate, which she had earmarked for retirement.

Another disabled woman from Nova Scotia was duped into giving Ajayi almost $38,000 (£23,913) after he pretended to be Travis David McFly, a United States Airforce pilot serving in Iraq.

Ajayi, who was arrested last August at the home he shares with his wife, denied conspiracy to defraud, fraud, concealing criminal property, using criminal property and two counts of possessing articles for use in frauds.

He was unanimously convicted by a jury on all counts after the trial after admitting a single count of possessing a false identity document with intent.

Adjourning sentence, Judge Sarah Paneth told Ajayi he was facing a ‘lengthy’ prison term.

A brother shared a story. He decided, one Sunday to worship in an African(Nigerian) church because he missed our praise and worship. Then, it was time for testimony, so this brother came out to give his testimony and it went like this.

I don tey for this country, I don suffer tire. Na hem i con start to pray, i pray, pray, pray make god make my maga dem pay. Everybody praise the lord my Maga has paid, my Maga paid $74,000 and this is just the beginning. The pastor also said, praise the lord

My friend said, " i just look left and right stand up jeje go house go dey look for sermon for youtube'

Hmm, could this be the shaking in the house of the Lord as stated in hebrew what a shame

what a shame

A son and his father were
walking
on the mountains.
Suddenly, his son falls, hurts
himself and screams:
“AAAhhhhhhhhhhh !!!” To his surprise, he hears the
voice
repeating, somewhere in the
mountain:
“AAAhhhhhhhhhhh !!! Curious, he yells: “Who are
you?”
He receives the answer: “Who
are
you?”
Angered at the response, he screams: “Coward !”
He receives the answer:
“Coward !”
He looks to his father and asks:
“What ’s going on?”
The father smiles and says: “My
son, pay attention.”
And then he screams to the
mountain: “I admire you!”
The voice answers: “I admire
you!” Again the man screams: “You
are a
champion!”
The voice answers: “You are a
champion!”
The boy is surprised, but does not
understand.
Then the father explains:
“People
call this ECHO, but really this is
LIFE. It gives you back everything
you say or do. Our life is
simply a
reflection of our actions. If
you
want more love in the world, create more love in your heart.
If
you want more competence in
your
team, improve your
competence. This relationship applies to
everything, in all aspects of
life; Life
will give you back everything
you
have given to it.

cheddarking: Travis David McFly?

Ahahahahahahaha

Is he related to Marty McFly?

Cheddarking, I thought they said the name is an American Soldier at Iraq.

if his victims had watched the videos they would have noticed the duration of the second video was 4:19! hhhhmmmmm!!!!

These religious fraudsters can dey fall our hand for dis Naija sha

First na pastors, now na gospel singers all under the guise of 'praise the lord'

I am not surprised but people seems not to see the possibility of him paying his way through from thε fraud proceeds to get the award. Afterall humanbeings organised thε award and not angels from heaven. Award winning nowadays isn't about merit but knowing and paying thε organisers.

Make him drop de soap na,he go dey praise the most high with pampers.

He should bury his head in shame for portraying himself as a gospel artist. He was only deceiving people with his song because he has the thiefing and cheating character within him.

my guy thanks a lot for this post am highly touch

The post was been forged at random. The main source posted in the last year that he had a clash which has been sorted out. I'm an journalist in the UK and Ireland; this is to inform you to be sure before responding to unverified posts like these.

Hmmmmm....... If only this guy had escaped the long arm of the law. Nigeria would have witnessed the arrival of another 'hardworking' multi-millionaire with a touching 'grass-to-grace' story to tell.
To all those who use acting and/or music as a cover up for their sinister actions, The arm of the law is very long oooooo.
And by 'arm of the law', I don't mean EFCC!

We Nigerians are very good at quickly judging ourselves.any sensible person will be able to read the context that,there is no correlation between the time that were mentioned in that article. Hw can some1 be arrested in August and was still seen on the streets on london in october 29. Oyinbo go give us something n na him we go dey use 2 kill ouselves. We saw this guy on tv on tv performed on october 28th. If you live in the uk and follows Nigerian Christian music u should know dis. We Nigerians just stand 2 kill ourselves. No wonder da grin said ojojumo lanjiriya.why won't we wake up 2 c suffering when we r hypocrytes n dishonest peoPle? Wonder d time Nigerians will grow up?
