Had I known...Crime does not pay Fraudster Bags 18 Years Jail Term over $250,000 Scam-EFCC Posted: May 21, 2012 - 19:45 Justice Habeeb Abiru of the Lagos High Court, Ikeja has thrown Ifeanyi Eze, aka Chedi Ojukwu behind bars for 18 years imprisonment, two years for each of nine charges of obtaining money by false pretences and forgery, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), reported today. Thirty-nine year old Eze, who pleaded guilty, is also to refund $35,000 to one Yildirim Babadogan, a Turkish citizen. Babadogan petitioned the EFCC in 2010 after Eze, operating under the false identity of “Chedi Ojukwu,” swindled him of over $250,000, with the connivance of three others, under the pretence that they were selling used rail parts. According to the EFCC, Eze and his gang had advertised on the Internet that they had used rail scrap for sale to interested buyers. Babadogan, 62, said he was subsequently convinced to come to Nigeria for negotiation and to see the goods. He and three of his countrymen later came to Nigeria to seal the deal, where they signed various documents including those supposedly bearing the logos of the Central Bank of Nigeria and other relevant government agencies. He claimed that on returning to his base in Turkey, he was made to transfer the sum of $80,000, which Eze and his gang claimed was to be used to finalize the deal. Babadogan further claimed that over $45,000 was later transferred to Eze and his co-conspirators on the pretence that the money was needed to process necessary papers and the shipment of the goods. Subsequently, Eze and his cohorts prevailed on Babadogan and his partners to return to Nigeria for further negotiations. On their return to Nigeria, Babadogan said, Eze and his syndicate started demanding for more money, including an additional $50,000 dollars for the Central Bank of Nigeria, as well as Customs shipping charges. To convince their victim, Eze and his gang forwarded a letter purportedly written by the Central Bank of Nigeria and signed by a former CBN governor that $50,000 was the outstanding shipping charge. Babadogan said he became suspicious of the deal when Eze told him that 435 containers of scraps were already at the port. He said when he requested to be taken to see the containers, Eze claimed that because of their failure to pay the CBN/Customs charges they would not be allowed to inspect the containers but that they can only see them from a distance. It was at this juncture that he reported the matter to a Nigerian friend who told him that he had fallen victim of fraudsters. He later contacted the EFCC and Eze was arrested. In addition to Eze, another suspect, Tijani Ladan, aka Suleiman, had earlier pleaded guilty to the charge and was sentenced accordingly. A third suspect, Chief Uche Dimgba, aka Salami Kambo, is still at large. Eze’s sentence will run concurrently, meaning he will be free in two years’ time. http://saharareporters.com/news-page/fraudster-bags-18-years-jail-term-over-250000-scam-efcc |

dkings101: You want me to mention a profession?? Tell me ur profession and I would tell you where u cheat. All those profession you urself highlight taken bricklayers, plumber, mechanic and all in consideration, they all cheat on daily basis. Not that you won't make profit out of your profession bt you would imagine they wanna milk you dry.I'm sure you already know that I am not in your league. Even if you have mansions in Lekki, VGC or Asokoro. I don't care! So, why should I tell you my profession? But of course you are right, I am a professional and not a common rogue like you. I know people like you who come to NL to steal peoples information and then send them phony emails. By their actions, you shall know them. What will you do with your life when 'Maga' stops paying? Keep popping the champagne now and expect to suffer later ( here and the after life) |
dkings101: Yahoo or No Yahoo....all profession Got Yahoo in it. I have seen a Pastor preaching the bible on Pulpit and the next day I see him in Cybercafe throwing Job. Wen you look at every business of the day, be it petty traders, marketers, bankers, doctor...just name the profession, there is no how they don't cheat daily to make profit. Where would you classify this kind of theft? All is still Yahoo. Little sin, big sin...all na sin.What logic? I was right when I posted that even primary school drop-outs can easily become Yahoo-Yahoo kingpins. It is just a matter of 'copy and paste.' It is futile dissipating energy with your ilk. Every profession has Yahoo in it you said, why did you not name the professions? Agreed, we have professionals like Engineers, Bankers, Teachers, Scientists,Lawyers, and others like Politicians (if you like), Plumbers, carpenters, vulcanizers (there is dignity in labour). What will you call those who have devoted their lives to scheming how to steal from others via the internet ? I hope you won't be ashamed to call yourself a rogue that you are. If you dare mention 'businessman', the wrath of God will visit you because you will be lying to your child. Ole! Barawo, Thief! |

sexkillz: [color=#000030] LMAO @ Yahoo boys in the house. . . Defending their arses.As you can see, this country is doomed. Where are the security agencies? At least if they can pack some of them on Nairaland we will have fewer criminals on the prowl. |
cyril83: if u like crucify and reign bunch of cause on them,such will neva take u to no wia...all I knw is u r suffering frm lack of opportunityReally Do you really believe that? What is ingenious in internet scams? Even primary school drop-outs do it. |

Your infantile rants are sickening. "It is but fitting to protect and encourage cheats since we live by them" eediot |
[quote author=ekt_bear]Oyb, explain to me the sense it makes for doctors working for the FG to be striking "in solidarity" with doctors working for a state government. Should doctors in Zamfara also strike because of a local labor dispute in Lagos? What of doctors in Zimbabwe? What justification do they have to strike, given that they have no grievances with their employer?[/quote I am really concerned when most of you lose your objectivity when it concerns ACN. Were you not in Nigeria when ASUU went on strike because of state universities or for the sacked Unilorin lecturers? Is this the first time there will be a solidarity strike in Nigeria? |
princey83: wetin concern fed with state...lolAnd your Tinubu is bigger than the people of Lagos or the 788 doctors? I wonder when this mental slavery started in the south west. Big mumu |
On a brighter note, I hope the chinese money will not be counterfeits... Whither Nigeria I have never expected anything good from Jonathan and he has not disappointed. |
Fashola, the CON and the MESS May 17, 2012 by Abimbola Adelakun 40 Comments  The case of Lagos State Government vs. doctors took a bizarre turn when 788 doctors were summarily dismissed and replaced with 373; the alarming shortfall seemingly papered over. And, so far, there are at least three factions of reactionaries: those who support the state; those who support the doctors; and others, like me, who will not take sides. But I am sympathetic to the doctors because of my experiences in Lagos public hospitals. In December 2009, I waited nine hours to see a doctor at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja. While waiting, others in the room kept murmuring that if they had money, they would go to a private hospital. My problem was the inverse; I was seeking expertise since the doctor in the private clinic I was using didn’t appear to be up-to-date (I had read more recent research online) and so I had insisted on a referral letter. By 9pm when I eventually saw the doctor, he skimmed the letter and said, ‘I should admit you but there are no beds. Even the corridors are full. If you can wait for a bed to be vacant, fine. Otherwise, I am sorry.’ He then called the next patient. I should have railed at his evident lack of compassion to me but the manic sight of him was pitiable: His eyes were bloodshot and it was obvious he was tired and needed a nap badly. Earlier in the day, his colleague said something about having worked for 36 hours at a stretch and there was no relief in sight. So, today, when people complain about the number of casualties of the strike actions, I tell them to spare a thought for those who have died because they were treated by fatigued personnel. The second time was in 2010 and, this time, at the eye clinic. I went through a friend and, according to one of the nurses, his letter helped me scale a two or three months’ wait list. I ended up waiting a mere six hours! The eye clinic that day was like an extension of Balogun market; filled to the brim with a restive crowd. While waiting in the ophthalmologist’s outer office, I overheard her telling someone that they were being overworked and in her position, she has to research, teach and still see patients. And that she gets so stressed that she herself doesn’t trust any diagnosis she makes after 4pm. I carefully looked at my wristwatch. Given my jaundiced visits to LASUTH, I don’t know which is worse: whether Lagos, the mega state as it prides itself, has such a paltry number of doctors or the sack itself. Both sides have accused each other of various illegalities and immorality but, note, the Hippocratic Oath may be binding but there is no part that says they should tear their human bodies apart to save lives. Two, the state government too has a binding Oath on it not to toy with the lives or welfare of the people. Three, I am against doctors’ strike, anytime, any day but the government’s move is a wrong one. Nigeria is a signatory to the International Labour Organisation’s Decent Work Agenda. The Agenda states that labour is not a commodity that can be disposed at will. As the name implies, DWA ensures decent employment and it includes not throwing people out to prove a point. I know some people have argued that the state had to resort to mass dismissal as a way of saving the system; I disagree. The system is actually worse off by tearing away people who have been in it for long and replacing them with neophytes. And considering that even the ones you sent packing were overworked, I wonder how those who are a fraction of their number will cope. When ex-governor Bola Tinubu gave the dismissal suggestion to Fashola in February, I thought it was one of those politicalspeak until it actually happened. But then, what makes this action of ‘dismiss and replace them all’ dangerous is that it wields power; the power to subdue. The way power works — especially when the system reposes it in the hands of one man — is that it is powerful when it is not used. We know it is there and that is enough. It is not about being weak because it is strength on its own to not use power to quell those who are, in a sense, weaker. Power becomes diminished when it is used that way and to restore some mystique to it, you keep using it to suppress. It is a process that breeds tyranny. When personal ego gets intermeshed with it, it takes another face. I once spoke to somebody about the case of the University of Ilorin lecturers and asked why he didn’t speak to former President Olusegun Obasanjo about it on a personal level. He said, “Once you mention that topic to Obasanjo, he will abuse you, abuse your father and the rest of your lineage.” We all saw how that story ended. It is a similar path I wish Lagos State will not tread. Just a year ago, the Action Congress of Nigeria used Lagos State as its poster boy for good governance. Other South-West state governors, more or less, rode on the strength of Fashola’s popularity to power. There is no point engaging in unalloyed propaganda about the ‘state-of-the-art’ facilities in Lagos State hospitals or that the governor goes there to check his blood pressure once in a year. The truth is, the health care system needs to be humanised and both the state and doctors are not exempt from this responsibility. There are better ways to resolve issues than showing power pass power. The already bad situation will become worse if the call for a solidarity strike by doctors in the employ of the Federal Government takes effect tomorrow. In the long run, strikes can be avoided in the essential services sector if we devise a mechanism, one independent of both parties, that’ll govern the standard workings of the system and which will guide all parties as to what their responsibilities are. Such a mechanism, periodically reviewed, can critically and fairly examine working conditions and other aspects to preempt and prevent disputes and strikes. In the meantime, they should be less recalcitrant and seek arbitration. After all, it is lives we are talking about. http://www.punchng.com/viewpoint/fashola-the-con-and-the-mess/ |
@ Op We dey wait dem for lagos. Dem for no change their mind |

lakhadimar: whydah is not in sudan as u claim it is in republique du beninYou are very right bro! |
@tpia Kosoko ran to Epe and not Whyday (sudan). When he was confronted by Dosumu aided by the british forces, he fled through the Five Cowries creek (between Marina and VI) to Epe. |
Quote of the year- 'Boko Haram is another name for justice'- Bamanga Tukur Now I expect the Boko Haram operatives to be emboldened by this and more bombings and senseless killings will follow. And Jonathan will be as clueless as ever! Cry, my beloved country...goodbye Nigeria |
Yes, you are right Mr Aganga but what will unlock the industrialisation? How are you going about unlocking it? Please we are tired of rhetorics! |
^^ Thanks bro! |
@ Patriot 2 and Chima12 Please, both of you should just stop it! |
afam4eva: How exactly have they been supportive?He gave written permission to allow the production team have free access to Obudu Cattle Ranch (accomodation et al) and other places where it will be filmed at no cost. |
Una dey miss well well. I swear if I hammer you one time, you no go dream of any other thing except my candy. |
I did some background research for the movie and I can only pray that it turns out well. The Cross Rivers state government has been very supportive as well. |
Beaf: Word.Apart from his reference to GEJ which you always take personal, did he not make better sense than the rabid f00l who posted nonsense? |
lincy: A confused trib(SW)Does nairaland look like a sanatorium? Just wondering how you managed to sneak into this forum. |
Omokemesi: Still Awaiting Saibuhari,s Reply.Omokemesi or Omo oke-mesi, or whatever you call yourself. Will you sharrap there? You were a part of the thieving group conniving to rob people of their hard earned money now you are getting sanctimonious. Your details will be forwarded to the EFCC and you will be forced to name your cohorts who have run into hiding. |
Where are the Patentees or whatever they call themselves? Now that it has been established that the only thing your Professor ever invented was a crooked way of extortion, are you going to stand by him? Please do so we can forward your names to EFCC as accomplices. |
rhamzus: UNIBEN PG form is out, their link is belowIMHO, this doesn't look like a genuine website of a government owned tertiary institution in Nigeria. I believe it should be something like http://.oauife.edu.ng as an example. Just warning folks to be wary! @Tintin, you are doing great. Keep it up sis! @ MarcAnthon, thanks for the info but will appreciate if we can get more updates and links. Sometimes, leads can be more helpful than Google. I have an Executive MBA (Marketing) from OAU and I'm still considering studying abroad. Though I've been thinking of Canada but I learnt the school fees are quite steep. |
^^ Another lunatic on the loose! It's a pity...what a terrible waste! |
Kay 17: The article was dripping with malice. The writer felt CBN wasnt statutorily empowered to carry corporate responsibilities yet he felt the faulty donation didn't get to the "right" people which is ethnically defined.Was he a banker before he became a teacher? You also did not deem it fit to say anything about CBN's criminal silence on the on-going allegations against Saraki and Mohammed a la Intercontinental Bank. If an Erastus had committed such gaffe you would have seen our 'esteemed professor' pontificating on why some criminals running the banking sector such be pilloried. Of course those things don't matter! |
