A raid last weekend by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and police resulted in the arrest of suspected fraudsters, including one of the

suspected kingpins, Akpojivi Onoriode, 29, a graduate of Fine and Applied Arts from the Delta State University, Abraka.

But security operatives and sources at the EFCC said they were just façade for illegitimate businesses. Akpojivi’s social media pages tell the story of wealth, taste for luxurious clothes, jewellery, white cars and houses, for himself and his wife, popularly called LePosh. A resident in the area, who preferred anonymity, said the suspect’s luxurious lifestyle had always piqued his curiosity.
