franvincoop:The thing about schooling in obodo oyibo is that if all you do is show up for class and do your homework, you’ll make at least a C. He could’ve changed his destiny and his family but he chose to be a fool! |
carzeem1:Was thinking same!! He got everything!! All he needed to do was to lay low and work hard!! Shame on him. |
ST. LOUIS – A man from St. Louis County, Missouri on Wednesday admitted fraudulently obtaining a student visa and admission to the University of Missouri and admitted using the visa to obtain a Social Security card, a driver license, a bank account and an apartment. Mercy Ojedeji, 24, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in St. Louis to one count of unlawful use of fraudulent immigration documents and one count of wire fraud. Ojedeji admitted using counterfeit academic transcripts, recommendations, a resume and a report about his English language proficiency to obtain a student visa from the University of Missouri and admission to the chemistry PhD program in the fall of 2023. Ojedeji also obtained a stipend and a tuition waiver worth more than $49,000. Ojedeji presented his student visa and other documents to the Social Security Administration to obtain a Social Security card and used the fraudulently-issued Social Security number and other documents to open a bank account. He also used the Social Security number and documents produced by his paramour to rent an apartment. After Ojedeji failed to attend classes, his assistantship or join a research group, the university terminated him from the graduate program in January 2024. This also resulted in the termination of his student visa. On Feb. 26, 2024, Ojedeji used his fraudulently-obtained and now invalid visa and other documents to obtain a Missouri driver license. The investigation into Ojedeji began when the U.S. Postal Inspection Service received complaints that romance fraud victims were mailing packages containing cash and gift cards to the home of Ojedeji’s paramour. Between Dec. 19, 2023, and Jan. 4, 2024, 35 Express Mail packages that had been tracked by Nigerian internet protocol addresses were delivered to the paramour’s address. A court-approved search of the home resulted in the discovery of packages sent pursuant to a Nigerian romance fraud scheme. A total of 193 packages were sent to the home through the Postal Services Express Mail, Federal Express, and United Parcel Service during Ojedeji’s relationship with the woman. At sentencing, the U.S. Attorney’s Office will argue that the total intended loss is more than $1 million, based on the $94,150 contained in the 17 packages seized by law enforcement. Ojedeji continues to deny any involvement in romance fraud. A judge will ultimately determine the loss amount at Ojedeji’s sentencing hearing, scheduled for July 10. Wire fraud carries a penalty of up to 20 years in prison, a $250,000 fine or both prison and a fine. The immigration charge is punishable by up to 10 years in prison and the same fine. “The U.S. Postal Inspection Service is dedicated to defending the nation’s mail system from criminal activity, preserving the integrity of the U.S. Mail, and protecting United States Postal Service employees. The U.S. Postal Inspection Service values our law enforcement partners for supporting our mission to protect the integrity of the U.S. Mail,” said Ruth M. Mendonça, Inspector in Charge of the Chicago Division of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, which includes the St. Louis Field Office. The U.S. Postal Inspection Service investigated the case, with the assistance of the FBI and the Town and Country Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Tracy Berry is prosecuting the case. https://www.justice.gov/usao-edmo/pr/man-admits-fraudulently-obtaining-student-visa-other-documents |
quick search shows no record of such exists on the GWR website. |
mumu president |
haybhi1:The rich will fight for the rich! The poor will fight for the rich cos they are foolish! |
Interesting!! You wouldn’t see them begging people from certain regions to join NNPCL! In fact, you’d never see them publish jobs but somehow, new roles will get filled! |
If you’re blaming the victims instead of the people that committed such despicable violence against them, then you’re part of the problem with the country. |
Thats 6m per year. It is more than enough for a family sef |
But he’s been doing this long before he campaigned for presidency! His visit benefits people and that alone is enough reason to let it happen. |
My Governor is the best in Nigeria! If not for Tinubu’s greed, he’d have done so much lore |
At a point, one has to question the rationale behind the posting of crimes committed by Nigerians in other countries. One thing I know for a fact is that there are criminals in every race and nationality but it is not our responsibility to further tarnish the image of our country. |
If hoodlums plan to hijack the rally, then provide adequate security based on intelligence you have received before hand. |
This is what Facism looks like! |
We all know Obi won the election! INEC and judicial corruption gave you the result you have today. |
Protected by Nigeria’s most elite armed forces. |
[b]Genuine people that would go out of their way to take a chance/risk for your sake are rare! When you come across them, guide them jealously and be the same for them! That guy fuckedddd up big time and he wil[/b]l quickly learn that the world is cold as fuccck |
Kobicove:Exactly my thought! Omo Naija isn’t cool to none-politicians oh |
The court needs to be lenient! Charge him a 30% penalty for not declaring his currency. It is not a crime to carry cash! The fake currency is negligible because it may have been as a result of doing numerous cash transactions. I really feel for the guy and I hope this shit doesn’t entirely ruin his life!!! |
Xannadu:Nkubi bothers nobody! I don't know why anyone would go out of their way to be unkind towards him. If anything, he is a motivation to a lot of us. He has owned his challenges and has decided to not be limited by them. It is admirable! |
JoeyNaza:Who asked you for your opinion?? |
Nigeria has a very long long long way to go! The people deserve the leaders they get!!!! |
Bulaba wants to bring back the ND conflict that brought Nigeria to its knees! |
Hankulu:Come On boss!!! I don’t know them but respect cost nothing! Shes his choice and that’s all that matters. |
Until they stop assaulting innocent civilians, I will always struggle to have any sympathy for members of the Nigerian Armed forces (including police). They need to start seeing themselves as one of us and act accordingly! The rampant and unchecked abuse of civilians has to stop and must end!!!! |
AguluLiar:Abobaku!! I am more Lagosian than you and yes, Lagosians are coward for allowing one man control the destiny of the state. |
Generational cowards living in the certain parts of the country will never ever understand what it means to stand up to your bully!!! Imagine in Lagos, the house of Assesmbly impeached their speaker only for one man to overturn their will!!! Lagos needs to wake the fuuuuck up and get out of the Tinubu stanglehold. |
SmartPolician:Marrying out of pity is the one of the worst things a man can do!!! It is better to settle her with 20m and just move on with your life. In short, give her 50m if you are capable and move on! If you dare marry someone that isn't on your level, the best thing they can do is to pull you down! You become the sole bread winner to a semi-literate woman that can barely read nor write and cannot provide any value to you. |
Wike would've made a fine leader if he didn't have so much baggage and so much needless greed. Leave Rivers alone, focus on your mandate in FCT! You are already a multi-billionaire in dollars! Just focus on doing good, then vye for presidency in due time. |
It has started! Tinubu really fumbled this by not reigning in Wike! What was the deal that Wike had with Fubara? Maybe renegotiate it to make it easier for Fubara! Tinubu failed to show leadership and now, Nigeria and our economy will pay. Having said that, I must admit that I am proud of the fight Fubara has put up! I am proud of the Rivers state people and proud to say that generational cowardice no dey blood. |
Nigeria must do away with state of origin. State of residence is a more apt determinant for our country. State of origin only fosters division and a sense of tribal loyalty! The only loyalty that should exist is loyalty to Nigeria. While I recognize the importance of tribes and cultures, we cannot foster a strong union if we put tribe before nation!!!! |
