EFCC arrests ‘fake’ Magu



The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission said it has arrested one Felix Idowu for allegedly impersonating its Acting Chairman, Mr. Ibrahim Magu.
In a statement on Wednesday, Spokesman of the commission, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, said the suspect was a real estate agent and a graduate of Political Science.
Uwujaren said Idowu was found with documents which had the forged signature of the EFCC boss and would be charged to court as soon as the investigation was concluded.
“Prior to his arrest, the EFCC received intelligence report that the suspect, while posing as an operative of the EFCC, requested for money in order ‘to kill’ a petition purportedly written against the complainant.
“The EFCC swung into action by asking the complainant to play along. In the process, Idowu was asked to liaise with the complainant’s personal assistant, who was an EFCC undercover agent.
“While interacting with the undercover agent, the suspect was lured to a popular supermarket in Wuse 2, Abuja, where he was arrested on Monday, April 30.
“Upon search of his Lexus EX 350 car, a lot of documents were recovered including letter of investigation activities on a fake EFCC letter-head paper with ‘Ref No: CTGI/6/vol.1’.
“Also found was a letter of petition written to EFCC with ‘EFCC stamp received’ bearing Magu’s forged signature,’’ he said.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that impersonation of Magu and other officials of the EFCC by fraudsters has been a source of worry to the commission.
The commission has issued several alerts in recent times to warn members of the public against fraudsters using Magu’s name for extortion.
The latest arrest came barely two years after the commission apprehended three suspects for a similar offence on August 9, 2016.
On September 16, 2016, a High Court sitting in Gombe sentenced one Muhammad Adamu to 14 years in prison for posing as an EFCC operative to extort the state’s Muslim Pilgrims’ Welfare Board.

Please read on.. The frontline Yoruba actress cum producer year ago was accused of bigamy For those who do not know, let us inform you for free that Bukky recently ended union with US big boy Adewale Onitiri may not be officially over as the actress in her usual waka commot style ended the marriage without divorce. Ordinarily, it would have been seen as a joyous thing with congratulatory messages flying in from different angles. But not so with the talented thespian whose secret wedding at a New Jersey,USA,registry drew flakes amongst her friends and foes alike. Very close friends of the star actress are telling anyone that cares to know that the reason she contracted the now crashed marriage with Adewale Onitiri in secret because she wanted to hide her many sins of multiple bigamy. Investigations have revealed that Bukky Wright is not only guilty of bigamy but that of deceit, infidelity, fetishism, greed, avarice and a lack of the rules governing marriage. Tale bearers who should know said that Bukky is married to four other men aside her last husband. We gathered that her first was to one Gboyega Amu with whom she had two children. Shortly after separating from Amu due to what she termed irreconcilable differences, she moved into the arms of fellow actor and one time NNPC top shot and current member of the House of Representatives, Rotimi Makinde without officially divorcing Gboyega Amu. Gboyega Amu Image result for makinde naijagists Rotimi Makinde The union lasted a few years before she moved on in the same fashion and found solace in the arms of society journalist and image maker, Femi Davies. Femi Davies Bukky and Femi got married at the Akodo Registry in Lagos without still dissolving her early marriages. Her nuptials with Femi Davies followed the same pattern. Did not last up to a year before she also walked away without going to the courts to seek for a divorce, making her the wife of three men. Not done with the three and the numerous flings, she later got hitched with renowned music promoter, Bolaji Saheed a.k.a Basia who was then based in Canada. Within a short time, and true to type ,they got married in a hush-hush Islamic Nikkai. Bolaji Basia According to news flying about then, she wanted to use Basia as a ticket to her permanent stay in Canada but the man got wise quicker than she expected. Soon enough, following her normal pattern,t he marriage crumbled owing to allegations of infidelity,lesbianism and fetish practices. As also was the norm, Bukky did not seek dissolution in a law court, meaning that the marriage is still standing.

Bigamy is a crime in most Western countries, and when it occurs in this context often neither the first nor second spouse is aware of the other. Meanwhile, the actress who has constantly come under radar has finally gives up on marriage after keeping her life out of the public. As at 3 years ago, the actress was accused of being a lesbian, an allegation she later denied.
