A Nigerian-born Gwinnett County resident had his U.S. citizenship revoked after a conviction on immigration fraud charges.

Olu Kanni Sanyaolu, also known as Kunle Sanya Olukanni, was convicted by a federal jury on July 20, the U.S. Department of Justice announced.

Sanyaolu had applied for naturalization in 2009 and was later granted citizenship.
‘Strange twist’ led investigators to Gwinnett arson suspect
Sanyaolu, 54, of Lawrenceville, had previously applied for asylum and permanent resident status in 1998 under the name Kunle Sanya Olukanni. That application was denied and he was ordered deported, the Justice Department said.
He then assumed his current identity, Olu Kanni Sanyaolu. He applied again for political asylum in 2005, claiming he was a member of the Nigerian Air Force and that he had been “persecuted and tortured after a coup,” a Justice Department press release said. He was granted asylum with that application.
In 2009, Sanyaolu applied for naturalization. During an interview with an immigration officer in July of that year, Sanyaolu said he had never used another identity and had never been ordered deported, the Justice Department said. Assistant U.S. Attorney Kelly K. Connors used Sanyaolu’s fingerprints to prove in court that Sanyaolu and Kunle Sanya Olukanni were the same person.

Nigerian man arrested in UK on Illinois fraud charges

FAIRVIEW HEIGHTS, Ill. — A Nigerian national, who is wanted in Illinois for scamming women in the United States, was arrested in London Saturday as he attempted to board a flight to South Africa.
This arrest was announced by Stephen R. Wigginton, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Illinois. This case was investigated by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service's St. Louis Field Office of the Chicago Division. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in St. Louis and the Fairview Heights office of U.S. Secret Service assisted in the investigation.
Olayinka Ilumsa Sunmola, 31, of Lagos, Nigeria, was arrested Aug. 9 in connection with a recently unsealed indictment returned by a federal grand jury in the Southern District of Illinois. Sunmola was arrested by London Metropolitan Police at Heathrow Airport as he was about to board a British Airways flight bound for Johannesburg, South Africa, where he currently resides and conducts his activities.
Sunmola was indicted Nov. 20 in an eight-count suppressed indictment charging him with various federal criminal offenses in connection with his operation of a romance scam targeting women in the United States. According to the indictment, Sunmola created several bogus online profiles on dating websites portraying himself as a U.S. citizen currently or formerly in the U.S. military and temporarily doing business in South Africa. The indictment alleges that Sunmola victimized least 30 women in the United States.
Over the course of several months, the indictment states, Sunmola cultivated a romantic relationship with each victim by sending flowers, stuffed animals, greeting cards and candy. His purpose was to lead each of his victims to believe that she was his one true love, his sole love interest and the woman with whom he intended to spend the rest of his life, the indictment states.
After successfully drawing women into a romantic relationship, Sunmola began manufacturing phony emergencies requiring increasingly large amounts of money from his victims. He played upon each victim's romantic feelings and vulnerability, and manipulated and groomed them to bilk them of their cash, assets and credit worthiness.
One victim described in the indictment was unwittingly drawn into a scheme involving counterfeit or stolen traveler's checks. As a result of her innocent involvement in cashing the checks for Sunmola, she was arrested by local police, jailed and charged with theft by deception and forgery, the indictment alleges.
The indictment further alleges that another Illinois victim was induced to purchase a webcam and pose in a sexually suggestive position. She later learned that Sunmola was making a video recording. He threatened to post the sexually suggestive images on the Internet. According to the indictment, Sunmola told the woman that by the time he was done with her she would want to kill herself. He pledged to ruin her life if she did not continue to send him the money he demanded.
Sunmola was charged with conspiracy, mail and wire fraud, and extortion. If convicted of all offenses, he faces a maximum prison sentence of 127 years, a fine of $100,000 on each of the eight counts of the indictment, and five years of supervised release. A trial date will be set after extradition proceedings have been completed, which could take several months.
Assistant U.S. Attorneys Bruce Reppert and Nathan Stump, Southern District of Illinois, are prosecuting this case. The Illinois Attorney General's Office referred the matter to the U.S. Attorney's Office for investigation as part of an ongoing partnership between the two offices to identify, investigate and prosecute international scammers who prey upon Illinois residents. This prosecution is also part of a larger initiative with the Chicago Office of the Federal Trade Commission to target romance scammers.
An indictment is a formal charge against a defendant that is comprised of the essential facts constituting the offense charged. Under the law, a defendant is presumed to be innocent of a charge until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt to the satisfaction of a jury.

CrimeHow I Was Kidnapped On The Kaduna Expressway by Germannig(op): 8:26pm On Apr 23, 2019
I was kidnapped on the Kaduna express way and here is my story


I had no premonition that day when I boarded a cab, a golf car from Kaduna to Abuja.
A few kilometres after Kaduna, shortly after the NYSC camp, around Dutse, on the express, we were assailed by a volley of gunfire targeted at tyres of vehicles on the express.
Of course all vehicles trapped within the radius of fire had to stop and passengers ran across the express to the other side of the road. As we ran, we saw men in army camouflage wielding Ak47s run after us and dragged us back to the side we just fled from.

We marched on for the full 6 hours into the bush; there were no huts, no buildings, no farmland, just endless vast arid land. I was able to gauge time because I was still wearing my wrist watch though my phone and bag had been taken by the kidnappers. Same with the rest of the others, victims like me, who had the misfortune of being on the road at that hour.
As soon as our phones were taken, the sims were removed; this of course meant they didn’t want us traced. Our phones were auctioned off to a certain ‘Yellow,’ that was the name of the person on the other end of the line who bargained for our phones.

I was in tatters in the course of our 6 hours’ trek; my gown had ripped open in my attempt to escape, my wig had fallen off and my tear stained face was caked with dirt and dust.
I was the only woman among the victims; there were 35 of us and twice the number of kidnappers. I feared the worst would happen to me. I began to pray because these people were just smoking weed, they were not normal people.


When we stopped, I quickly sought the face of one whom I perceived to be the leader. I went on my knees and crawled to his feet, groveling, weeping agonisingly and pleading.
I said to him: ‘I know you are a good Muslim, one versed in the tenets of Islam and who knows the sanctity of marriage. Please protect my honour for I am a married woman. Please protect me.’

This leader, who must have been like 26 years at the most, wouldn’t look at my face and I quickly sensed that he couldnt bear to look at a crying woman and so I intensified my cries and pleas and grovelling. I rolled in the dust with snot running from one nostril to the other.
Still, with his gaze averted he told me to stop crying and go join the rest of the victims where they were huddled on the ground. When I wouldn’t stop, he said sternly that if I didn’t stop then he wouldn’t help me. I stopped. He looked at me and told me I wouldn’t be touched by anyone of his boys.
Then they started getting in touch with our people to demand for ransom. How did they contact our relatives?

First off, they asked us all to call out the numbers of relatives we wanted them to contact for our ransom; once we gave the numbers, they would call them then allow us speak for just a few seconds before they took over the phone and made their demands.
They used an old untraceable Nokia phone to make each of these calls and because they spoke Hausa to us but Fulani amongst themselves, I wasn’t able to catch much of what was said among them.



No one escaped, they had seen us run and pursued us until we were all caught and rounded up. We were then marched in a single file into the bush.
As we headed into the bush, they had us arranged in formation, one victim, one kidnapper and so on while the rest of the kidnappers formed two lines beside our single file. There was no escape as they repeatedly warned us that we would be shot if we tried to escape.
Being the only woman, I was the first to be asked to introduce myself; name, state of origin, job, how much I had in my bank account and as they searched every nook and cranny of my bag and wallet; they wondered why I didn’t have an ATM card.
Thankfully, that day was the day I didn’t travel with my ATM card. I told my kidnappers that I had no bank account; that I am a married woman with children who also happens to be a student. I pleaded, telling them my husband is poor and earns N8,500 monthly and that my family is very poor as well. I told them I was given to my husband at a young age to settle a debt my father had incurred.

But they called me a harlot for leaving my children and going to school. I explained that it was my husband’s idea. He wanted me to go work to augment his salary and working required a certificate and so I had to go to school to earn one. Thankfully, my story was believed. I was soon to realize that these uneducated kidnappers didn’t know much.
They decided I was worth N5million! Immediately I heard that, I raised my hands in surrender, ‘Just shoot me, there’s no way my husband or family will ever raise that amount of money, nobody in my village, Gorin goni, the poorest village in Kaduna, will give as much as N2,000. So please, just shoot me.’
The leader then drew me aside and asked me exactly how much my family could get, I said N10,000. He walked away in anger swearing that I would die. I was still haggling with them over my ransom, when God came through for me…

There was another victim, a Customs officer from Kogi state who drew their ire; they discovered his identity from the ID Card found in his wallet.
It was clear the kidnappers apparently hate the current government because victims who worked for government were singled out and thoroughly beaten with the sticks they used to herd cows. They said the government had impoverished its people and that those in government were thieves.

Every chance they had they would beat the Customs officer. Despite my situation, I began to think of how to save him; so I called out that he must be a fake customs man as his service number is 10 digits instead of 6. They stopped and, thankfully the Customs guy cued in, he begged them saying indeed he was a fake customs man; he said he smuggled cars into the country and he had to do a fake ID to deceive the Customs officials who were collecting money from him. That’s how they stopped beating him!

They demanded 10million off the Customs officers family!

Then, there was also amongst us a Yoruba man who by all appearances was quite rich. Since the Yoruba man didn’t speak Hausa, I was his interpreter to the kidnappers.
This Yoruba man jumped into the drainage tunnel when we were first attacked and fled to the bush but the kidnappers had gone after him and dragged him by the leg out of the tunnel into the open. So, he was caked in blood and dirt. This man told me I should tell the kidnappers he was willing to pay any amount they wanted!

I had to shush him. I warned him, they will finish you o. But the man was jittery, you know how you Yoruba people are at the sign of trouble.
At the end of the negotiation, they demanded N100 million from his family!


You see, all of us victims had been thoroughly stripped of whatever we possessed. I was quick to have deleted my messages and email from my phone when the commotion started, that was my saving grace.
So, when I said I didn’t even have enough money not to talk of a bank account, there were no alerts or bank details in my phone. The others were not so lucky.
Each victim was asked to give the correct PIN number and amount left in their accounts. Any attempt to give a fake PIN was instant death upon discovery because they wouldn’t ask you again.

How did God come through for me?

I was the go-between who always had the phone so I could interpret when calls came in.
One afternoon, they suddenly began to argue amongst themselves and so moved away from us victims. I suddenly found myself alone with the phone! I quickly dialed my brother and told him to keep negotiating, never to give accept the amount they asked for.
You see, once a victim speaks to their family, the victim never gets to talk again until ransom is paid and families don’t realise they can haggle and negotiate the ransom!


After demand for ransom was made from all victims/families, we began another stretch of travelling. We trekked for another 6 hours, making it a total of 12 hours trek from the express into the deepest parts of the bush.
As we went along, we saw their armed vigilantes. Yes, the kidnappers had vigilantes to catch and kill runaway victims. They told us their vigilantes were well armed and since it was an open field, any runaway victim would be shot dead.
When we got to what was our destination, it was a huge village, community of different ‘platoons’ of kidnappers who also had their own victims. So it was like a village business, hundreds of kidnappers, living side by side several hundreds more with each owning victims they raided off the roads.


When we were eventually settled in an open place, the other ‘platoon’ of kidnappers came to ‘inspect us’, like we were spoils of war, loot they had come to admire.
Suddenly, I was being ogled by boys no than 16 to 18. They told my kidnappers that I was a ‘good catch.’ They meant this in terms of rape. But I heard one of my kidnapper say, their leader forbade them from touching me but that they would see about it. I began to pray again that the leader doesn’t change his mind about protecting me.

To cut a long story short, I was released on the third day after a ransom of N500,000 was paid on my behalf. No, my family didn’t raise all the money, my old school mates from the federal government girls’ secondary school I attended, helped raise the money as well. I have God and them and of course my traumatised family to thank for my release.
The customs officer who was asked to bring N10 million, paid N5million.

They asked our families to meet us at a certain place from where their okada rider look outs took them on a two hours’ ride inside the bush. There they counted the money, asked them to walk back and wait at a certain point for us.
I and the customs officer were released together as our ransom was paid the same day. We walked for more than 8 hours to reunite with our families.

I am home today but still so traumatized. I was happy when Governor El Rufia’s convoy went after some of them weeks ago. But a more concerted effort is needed.

While I was there, an Airforce fighter jet came and hovered over the community of kidnappers. Yes, it means government is aware of their location. As soon as the fighter jet was sighted, the kidnappers assembled all of us victims on the edge of a water fall and pointed their weapons at us. They were prepared to shoot us if the fighter jet opened fire on them.
At this point, we the victims began to wave off the fighter jet, we began to beg them to leave, whereas our kidnappers taunted and dared the fighter jet to drop lower so they could complete the massacre.


I found out that victims whose families couldn’t raise money were taken to the edge and shot, their bodies would fall below and be swept away by the water. That way it won’t stink out the community.
To date, no body has come to take my statements or ask me what happened. I mean the authorities haven’t contacted me. So they know exactly what is going on.

Notice how GT Bank runs from Lagos court to Ibadan court looking for a Yoruba judge that will be tribalistic enough to subvert the rule of law.

How ''shopisticated'' grin are Yorubas?

Had it been GT does not have branches in SE, it would quite likely escape this judgement based to Yoruba tribalism. Next GT will go to Ogun, Osun to seek further FAKE court moves. I hear Innoson is sealing the GT branches in SE. That way they can get their money back. Any Yoruba supporting GT on this is evil and I pray your own money is stolen by your own bank.

Court Rejects GTBank’s Move To Stop Innoson From Taking Over
News
Apr 8, 2019

The Federal High Court sitting in Ibadan has rejected a stay of execution request by Guaranty Trust Bank [GTBank] to restrain Innoson Group from continuing to levy execution against it.
News of the rejection was broken by Innoson Group’s Head of Corporate Communications, Mr. Cornel Osigwe, in a press release issued on Monday.
Mr. Osigwe also stated that the court refused to hear a request to grant it an injunction to restrain Innoson.

Osigwe lamented that despite the decision of the Supreme Court on February 27 dismissing the appeal by GTBank and affirming thereby the concurrent judgment of Court of Appeal, Ibadan division and Federal High Court Ibadan which ordered GTB by way of Garnishee Order Absolute to pay Innoson Nigeria Ltd the sum of N2.4 Billion with a 22% interest, per annum, on the judgment sum until the final liquidation of the judgment debt, the bank is yet to comply with this order.
He said that in a bid to stop Innoson from continuing with taking over its assets in execution of the aforesaid judgment, GTBank approached the Federal High Court, Ibadan on Friday, 5th April 2019 and requested the court, through a motion, to stay execution and or for an injunction restraining Innoson from continuing with executing a judgment.
He said: “Supreme Court has affirmed when it dismissed the GTB’s appeal against the Court of Appeal’s decision affirming the High Court’s judgment and order in favour of Innoson.
“We have previously stated that in a garnishee proceedings, once an order of garnishee nisi is made, the garnishee is required by law to set the amount involved aside and will not allow the judgment debtor to withdraw from it.

“If the order is made absolute, the garnishee pays the money to the judgment creditor and incurs no liability for doing that but if the order is not made absolute the garnishee returns the money to the judgment debtor.”
Osigwe recalled that the order was made absolute since 29th July 2011 and GTB held unto the money from that time and is using it for its business.
He added that by the time the order was made absolute it was no more the judgment debtor’s money but rather that of Innoson Nigeria Ltd who is the judgment creditor.
“If a garnishee refuses to comply with the order, then, it becomes a judgment debtor, as GTB has become in the present case, against whom execution of the order will issue,” he stated.
Based on the foregoing, Innoson wrote a letter to GTB directing it to pay the N2.4 billion Judgment debt to Innoson Nigeria Ltd with the accrued interest of N6,717,909,849.96 with immediate effect.
Innoson, however, advised GTBank that if it’s banking operation will be seriously and adversely affected, and its capital base eroded as a result of the N8.7 billion judgment debt, it should convert the said sum or part of it into shares and allot same to Innoson.
“This,” according to Osigwe, “will save taking it over in the manner Innoson is doing.”

PoliticsRe: The Igbo Nation Should Forget The Politics Of Nigeria And Focus On Independence by Germannig: 7:48pm On Apr 11, 2018
igbodefendercom:
How will you convince Wike's Rivers Igbos to join you? Wike has said Rivers Igbos are committed to Nigeria.

Without access to the sea from Rivers Igbo ports like Port Harcourt (Igwe Ocha, and Igwe Ngaa) an independent Igbo country might be at the mercy of vengeful Nigerians, who will slap very high export duties on products coming from Alaigbo, even ones meant for export in other countries passing through Nigerian seaports.

Thus, no matter how good those products may be (and they would be very good because Igbos are the best, world class!) someone sitting in Lagos Customs Office can price it out of the market.

And unlike now that Igbos can use Igbo blogs to put pressure and get the decision reversed as citizens, then the Igbos would be called foreigners that have no citizens rights in Nigeria. Any Igbo that tries to protest would likely be deported to his country and his property gladly siezed. That is why we ask you too give Nigeria another chance.

With good governance from our state governors, Igbo Presidency, etc., things will get much better.
You may be right some, but many rich countries including Switzerland, Austria and, in Africa, Botswana do not have access to the Sea. Rwanda, the best example of an African country undergoing enviable development, also has no sea contiguity.
