The lady, an ophthalmologist, told the police that when she contacted the accused, they informed her that they were “love spell casters” from Uganda and could perform prayers that will solve her love problems.
The funny thing was that they told her they were from Uganda, because they knew what her reaction would be had they said they were from Nigeria.
Two Nigerians identified as Okwuchukwu, 41, and Obiwuru Jonathan Uzaka, 35, who posed as love spell casters have been arrested in India after they allegedly defrauded a female Indian doctor of N6.6 million (Rs 12.45 lakh) over claims that they could provide solutions to her love problems.
The two suspects, both residents of Uttam Nagar in Delhi allegedly carried out the scam in collaboration with two others identified as Mike Ajunda and one Daniel who have been declared wanted by the police.
According to a report in Indian Express, the victim who was going through difficult times in her life chanced upon the Nigerians after she searched for “love spell caster,” online.
The lady, an ophthalmologist, told the police that when she contacted the accused, they informed her that they were “love spell casters” from Uganda and could perform prayers that will solve her love problems.
The police statement said, “The complainant who was seeking a solution to her love life problems and professional success had searched online for “love spell caster” and got the phone number of the fraudsters, she told police in her complaint.
“Based on her complaint, the police lodged a case and collected technical evidence. A special team led by Inspector J Narender Goud rushed to Delhi, arrested the accused and brought them to Hyderabad on transit remand.
“The accused have been remanded in judicial custody,” the statement added.
Police claim that the four accused came from Nigeria to India for a clothing business, but devised a plan to cheat gullible citizens to make money after they suffered losses in their business.
The accused persons also opened bank accounts through brokers and posted advertisements on social media platforms and Google along with their phone numbers offering services in astrology, love spell casting, and solutions for life’s problems,” the police added.
Bigchristo: Try to read and understand it’s Nigeria community in Turkey, it’s not government that donated the relief materials
Even if it's the government that donated it, SO WHAT?
It is evil and inhuman to say that because you have poverty in NIgeria, the govt should IGNORE natural disasters happening to other countries, and not offer aid or assistance, where tens of thousands of people have been killed and maimed.
G00DHardDick: This is exactly why Nigeria urgently needs Peter obi to rescue and liberate this country from these clueless old corrupt criminals who are hell bent on destroying this country.
Nigeria cannot afford to miss Obi. He is the best man for the job.
This post is an insult to the 12,000 people so far killed in that Earthquake.
Freshtruth: This country be somehow olurun Your citizens are crying for the past 2weeks now here the government that is suppose to print more Naira notes are busy doing eye service the Angel wey post me come Nigeria thank you sir. You did well
An EARTHQUAKE just crushed 12,000 human beings like you to death in an instant.
Ekundayo7574: On Thursday, November 17, 2022, Peter Obi was in Port Harcourt on the invitation of Governor Ezenwa Nyesom Wike to inaugurate the Ikoku Flyover. While there, his garrulousness landed him in hot water twice.
Firstly, he was shown as a Machiavellian politician to whom the end justifies the means, when he tried to pull off a devil’s bargain with Mr. Wike. He said on camera as follows:
“We will not quarrel with you. Please give us this one (meaning the Presidential election) and collect the other one (meaning the gubernatorial election). I will accommodate them (Rivers state) in the other one.” Remember this agreement today. I’m kneeling down and begging, take this one (state) give me this one (centre).”
Many of his non-hardcore supporters were shocked at the comments. A number of them said even if he must make such a bargain, he should have been circumspect enough not to do so publicly.
Definitely, the Labour Party heard what Peter Obi said in Port Harcourt about the Peoples Democratic Party and its gubernatorial candidate. This proves what I have always said: Peter Obi is not compatible with Labour’s ideology. He is just using them as a vehicle to contest the election. And like he did with their Rivers guber candidate, he will sell them out for his selfish benefit at the slightest opportunity. Obi is a trader for profit, not a leader or prophet!
For example, Obi’s plan to eliminate import restrictions is anti-labour. It will flood Nigeria with cheaper foreign imports and will particularly affect the textile and agricultural industries. He is not yet President, and he is already selling out labour. He is a trader, not a leader. He will always sell out!
Again, his desire to eliminate fuel subsidy and privatise critical infrastructure runs counter to labour’s ideas.
And by asking Rivers residents to vote PDP for Governor and vote him for President, we see that Obi does not care about Labour. He cares only about himself!
Imagine that you are the Labour Party gubernatorial candidate. How would you feel, after spending money and resources to campaign for yourself and Obi, to hear the same Obi bargain away your position for his own personal benefit? And this is a man who said it is the people who are his structure. Now, he is appealing to Wike! How is Obi different from your regular desperate politician?
And the gubernatorial candidate of the Labour Party in Rivers state, Mrs Beatrice Itubo, was even ill and on admission at a hospital. Sadly, Peter Obi did not think it fit to visit her. He was too busy cutting desks with Wike at her expense.
But it was what he said next that further exposed Obi as a politician who plays hard and fast with the truth. Mr: Obi, in trying to take a jab at Bola Tinubu, said:
“Everyone knows where I was schooled and my schoolmates. Not some people that no one knows their schoolmates or the schools they attended.”
He then further said:
“Peter Odili was my senior at (CKC); we played football together. If Odili is not able to play, just know we have lost that day,” Mr Obi while taking an apparent swing at the credibility of Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress at a rally in Port Harcourt.”
The thing is that that statement (which he made on camera and cannot deny) is factually incorrect.
Peter Odili is 74. He is 13 years older than Peter Obi. Odili was born in 1948, while Obi was born in 1961. In fact, according to her biography, by the time Hon. Justice Mary Odili met her husband, Peter Odili, in 1974, he was already a medical doctor.
At that time, Peter Obi was in form 2. Please research it. The timelines are impossible. Except Obi is lying about his age, there is no way he could have been at Christ The King college with Peter Odili. In fact, at the time Obi was at CKC, Odili was already a medical student.
But why does Obi lie so much? This is not his first blooper. This is the latest in a series of blunders. And when I busted this lie, Mr. Obi’s Obidients tried to use the civil war as an excuse to say that it delayed Dr. Odili at Christ The King College. Bollocks!
Why? Because in his autobiography, Conscience and History-My Story, Dr. Peter Odili revealed that he had finished his studies at CKC by 1966, when Peter Obi was only five years old,
According to him, he gained admission at University College Ibadan, but could not resume due to the civil war. After the war, he began pre-med at Nsukka in 1970, and became a medical student by 1971. Obi lied. Accept it!
Peter Obi’s lie was unnecessary. He could have just said ‘Peter Odili can attest to the fact that I went to CKC College’ and stop there. He had to embellish it with that football story. A person who lies unnecessarily may also steal unnecessarily! It shows a pathological pattern in his behaviour.
And rather than fess up completely to the lie, Mr. Obi claimed that he did not say what he said on video. This is now the second time Peter Obi would deny what he said on video. The first was when he lied on video that the shares he bought at IBL Breweries for Anambra at over $20 million, are today worth over $100 million.
When that was revealed as a lie by The Cable Newspaper, Mr. Obi amazingly denied saying it, when it was even captured on video.
Now, he has denied saying he met Peter Odili at school and even played football with him. He claims that he was misunderstood. I watched the video again. There was no misunderstanding. Obi was crystal clear. It is impossible to misunderstand a person who lied with such lucidity and clarity.
The fact is that Obi is a very dishonest and irresponsible man. Irresponsible, because he lies and refuses to own up to his lies, and rather, blames his lies on others.
Below are some of Mr. Obi’s most remarkable lies. I must add that they were all captured on video.
Eleven of the many lies told By Peter Obi!
1. I employed 60% of Anambra people in IBL Brewery (IBL employs less than 0.06% of Anambra’s population).
2. Out of 150 players in the American NBA, almost 100 are Nigerians.
3. I did not leave debt in Anambra (actually he left debt, according to the Debt Management Office).
4. Tinubu sent out WhatsApp messages against me that I would destroy Lagos (actually, the blast was sent out by Powell Glad Legbe, an Obidient).
5. Nigeria exported less than $30 billion in 2021 (Nigeria has exceeded $30 billion exports for over a decade).
6. I am the first Governor to be impeached and reinstated in Nigeria (actually Ladoja was the first).
7. I have never been involved in corruption (according to the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, Peter Obi corruptly ferried money out of Nigerian and stashed them in secret accounts).
8. My investment in SABMIller now worth $100 million (actually, the Obi government’s investment of $12.24 million is now worth only $5.38 million)
9. The Governors of the Southeast founded ESN (actually, ESN was founded on December 13, 2020 by Nnamdi Kanu).
10. I have only one wristwatch (Peter Obi has been photographed with multiple wristwatches).
11. I don’t fly private jets (pictures don’t lie!)
And in this present instance, it is not as if Obi voluntarily confessed that he lied. He did not act altruistically.
Obi waited until we unearthed proof from Dr. Odili’s biography before fessing up to his lie. He was forced to come contrite! Obi and his Obidients were too busy trying to fault Tinubu’s claims of graduating from Chicago State University that they forgot to put their Odili lie together.
And thus is a man who likes to say go and verify at the slightest opportunity!
If Waziri Atiku or Bola Tinubu tells even half of the lies Obi has told, he and his Obidients would have run them out of town.
Again, it is the contradiction that just gets to me. Obi is the least honest candidate, having been caught telling so many lies, yet he boasts of integrity. He is the most educational backward candidate (Kwankwaso has a PhD, Atiku has a Masters, and Tinubu has a second class upper, while Obi has a second class lower in Philosophy), yet he claims to be the most qualified candidate. He has the least achievements (to the extent that his major claim to fame is a beer brewery as his major achievement), and still posits that he is the most experienced candidate.
He says he wants to move Nigeria from consumption to production, yet his signature policy thrust is to eliminate every import restriction, and he is Nigeria’s single largest individual importer of foreign goods.
He claims that former leaders ruined Nigeria, yet runs from one former President to the other former head of state, seeking endorsements. He claims to be richer than President Biden (Biden is worth $8.2 million), and says he does not give shishi, but went to America to solicit for funds (meanwhile, in his own backyard, Southeast businessmen donated N1 billion to Bola Tinubu and ignored him).
He says he sympathises with the Wike-led G-5, yet the chairman of his party, and the Director General of his party are from the South, just like him. He says he developed Anambra into a place to be, yet lives in Lagos. He told Nigerians he wants to unite the country, yet said he would dialogue with an IPOB that wants to divide the country. He preaches religious tolerance, yet went to a church to say (and these are his exact words “please the church wake up. Take back your country”.
He claims not to fly private jets, but has been pictured multiple times coming out of a private jet, or a hired charter flight. He wants Nigerian youths to be his structure, yet his own youthful children are abroad and have NEVER joined him on the campaign train to be part of his fabled structure.
How can one man have so many contradictions? We missed the warning signs with Buhari. Are we going to repeat history in 2023?

Winnersunited: You made very beautiful submissions, and should have continue on that line by calling out the Op specifically. But you left the OP, and now said something is wrong South Easterners... That's the whole people in South East, it's show how myopic and unintelligent you are. Your writeup doesn't worth reading.
The best confirmation that something is very wrong with South easterners is Peter Obi's own statements regarding when he was governor, and he would travel to the US, and all the Igbos he met there were telling him where he should buy his property.
Pointing him to posh areas where he should buy his property.
He told them he wasn't interested in buying any property, and they were looking at him as if he was crazy.
You people are just too shallow-minded. It's all about the here and now for you. No vision.
When South West governors travel, they go looking for investment partners to do world class business in their states.
When Gov Sanwo-Olu of Lagos goes to America, he's going there for top-level business consultations to deliver world class facilities in his state.
South East governors are small-minded, visionless, egocentric, shallow, and specialize in personal aggrandisement - shopping for luxury houses in the US, and building beautiful Government Houses where THEY would reside.
OKOATA: I'm rooting for Obi but na that breakup I really want, make everyone bear him papa name.
When you break up and become the new South Sudans and Sierra Leones, is that when you think your problems will stop?
Is it not the same local elite chopping your money in your state now that will still be in power chopping your money in your new banana republic?
It will even be easier for them to suppress you in a small banana republic.
Go and see what happens to opposition elements in South Sudan, Sierra Leone, Burkina Faso, Guinea, Gambia - countries everyone ignores for their smallness.
You want to join their irrelevant, puny ranks and become bitches of France.
Orangedreams: I can boldly say Imo state has the most beautiful government house apart from Aso Rock. But of course I may be wrong.
Please rep your state government house with a few pictures, let's compare and also learn.
Bigots please stay away from this thread. Everything no be tribe.
The pics below are Imo State govt house aka Douglass House.
Let's go!
You have no shame.
Other states are building and showcasing brand new rail networks, with ultra-modern train stations for the masses, ultra-modern bus terminals, deep sea ports, brand new cities on land reclaimed from the Atlantic, world class airports, and other relevant infrastructure, while a TOAD like you is pre-occupied with how beautiful your Government House looks.
And expecting others to join you in posting their respective government houses, to compete on whose is the 'most beautiful'.
I mean, damn....
Something is seriously wrong with many of you South Easterners.
Winnersunited: I found it funny where he said ''You are a great country''. You are a great country when it does not translate to the welfare and standard of life of the citizens. Let's me measure the FDI of Nigerian State. They keep deceiving Nigeria people, men without honour.
Shut up. Nigeria's GDP per capita is over 5,000 dollars and rising, which is higher than many countries.
That she is a developing country does not mean she is not a great country.
ebufa: Under rate Tinubu at your peril........That man is as cunning as Satan himself! The whole currency saga is just smoke and mirrors to confound the massive and unexpected challenge that Peter obi's campaign has become to The Afonja/Aboki cojoined conspiracy called APC.........Tinubu and Buhari are in bed together and have always been in bed politically! Tomorrow Yoruba urchins will say they are PROGRESSIVES........for where?
The afonja/ aboki political romance that was consumated during the civil war has never ended and it is in fact blossoming! It is the hapless northern xtians i sha pity...............for Hard core Igbos,we are done with the Lugardian cage!!
Mumu..there are 11 million Igbos in the north, according to Ohaneze. Plus 10 million in the southwest/midwest.
Can your dot in a circle fantasyland handle 21 million jobless deportees?
Omoawoke: The smartest people in the world are converged in US. And that’s why US will beat Russia hands down. War is like a card game, you don’t reveal your best hand. US will only let you know as much as they want you to know.
If Russia is as good as you said to people, maybe that’s why they are the best destination for people migrating. Pls don’t ever dream of going to the western world for anything in your life, just go to your Russia jeje. Stay away from UK, Germany, Canada , Australia and US to justify your argument
THE WEST IS EVERYONE'S DESTINATION BECAUSE THEY'VE CORNERED THE RICHES OF THE WORLD THROUGH MILITARY TERROR AND BRIGANDAGE GOING BACK 1,000 YEARS, NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE ANGELS.
THE CHINAS AND RUSSIAS OF THE WORLD ARE 'TYRANNICAL' BECAUSE IT IS THE ONLY WAY TO UNITE INTERNALLY TO FIGHT WESTERN IMPERIALISM.
IT CANNOT BE DONE VIA 'DEMOCRACY' BECAUSE EVERY NATION IS FILLED WITH SELLOUTS AND TRAITORS READY TO SABOTAGE THEIR NATION FOR A MESS OF POTTAGE.
