Two-men defraud woman seeking spiritual help N7.5m

The Lagos State Police Command has arrested two suspected fraudsters for defrauding a yet-to be-identified woman N7.5 million in the Ikorodu area of the state.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, announced this via his official Twitter page on Sunday.

He stated that the suspects were on a mission to get more money from the victim before the police arrested them.

Hundeyin wrote, In Ikorodu, these two duped a woman to the tune of N7.5m under the guise of providing ‘spiritual help’. She realised the fraud and approached the police. They were apprehended when they arranged to get another batch of funds from her. Investigation is ongoing.”
