The operatives of the Special Intelligence Response Team, IRT, have arrested a 38-year-old man, Omoniyi Ademola, who defrauded Senator Tayo Alasodura of N3 million, while pretending to be a female relative.


The suspect who launched a WhatsApp support group for the Senator using a woman’s picture and putting up favourable post on the group daily which the Senator was also a member of, started defrauding the lawmaker in June 2016, during his campaign for the Ondo State governorship election.

The suspect who is a native of Ikare-Akoko area of Ondo State, however ran into trouble in September, when he attempted to defraud the Senator of an additional N5 million, while claiming he has been kidnapped by some bandits operating along the Abuja-Kaduna Highway.

“He (Senator) was moved by the support I gave him on the group and wanted to know why I was showing so much interest in his campaign since he didn’t commission me to do so.

“I identified myself as Deborah, one of his distant relatives, schooling in Jos. He believed me, then I started swindling him.”

Ademola who sent a text message to the Senator in Hausa dialect, begging him to pay N5 million as ransom or he (Ademola) would be killed, was busted after IRT operatives, led by Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari, discovered during investigations that the said bandit was nowhere near the Abuja-Kaduna Highway, but was in Akure, Ondo State.

The arrested suspect further said; 

“My phone has an application that could turn my voice from that of a man to a woman. “During our chats, I told Senator that I needed money to write my project and he sent me some money and after writing my project, I told him that I had no money to come back home and he sent me some money.

“But few days later, I called and told him that I was involved in an accident and my leg would be amputated. He took pity on me and said he would spend any amount of money in ensuring that my leg was not amputated.

“He asked to speak with the doctor of the hospital I was taken to and I gave him my second number and spoke to him as the doctor. “He then sent me some money for my treatment and feeding. After a long time, he called to check how I was doing and I told him that I wasn’t improving.

“Then he directed me to a place in Ede, Osun State, to continue treatment and sent me money for the treatment and feeding.

“After some months, I called to inform him that I was fine and he asked me to come to Akure so he could see me. He sent me some money for transport.

“While he was expecting me, I sent him a text informing him I had been kidnapped. He immediately stopped talking to me and before I knew what was happening the Police came and arrested me.”

How do you help people with all these. How do you know the ones in need truly

This is the kind of act that discourages free giving from certain people...cz once defrauded, they become unwilling to assist anyone for fear of being magalized twice

Police arrested him because a senator is involved. If Nigeria police wan work, dem dey work.

Someone pretended to be an old customer, called my mechanic to come to a place to fix his car on a Sunday, the mechanic went there not knowing that they are gang of criminals.

To cut the story short, he got there, these guys lured him to a lonely place, collected his phone and asked their other victims to send all themoney in their account to the mechanic's account after which they went to the ATM and cleared all the money.

Next day we called the guy that called my mechanic, he picked and asked the mechanic to thank dem for not killing him.

We went to the police station, police called the guy he picked, but the police said they could do nothing, even when that phone could have successfully tracked them down.

3 million only and the senatoor is complaining. Not justifying the fraud but senator whoever u are stfu. Thats a peanut compared to the millions u steal from the collective wealth of the people.

I think this tend to show that the senator is a nice person with a good heart

In as much as I don't support fraud. He already swindled the man 3M. Why not find something worthwhile to do with the money

Person wey get cap no get head and person wey get head no get cap

Hian, do people still fall for this kind of cheap scam that my dog called Donald can smell from afar

Hmmmm.
What ever makes men susceptible to female stunts is the biases men have for their follow men.

When national cake hooks you in the throat

my brother don't be a negative thinker lodge your complain at the nearest police station or call the state police public relation office go to the bank and collect your transaction details make sure you still have the callers no. I swear police we get them.

Did you read the full story? That wo(man) worked for him during his campaign and was therefore seeing it as assisting a relative in me.
