I Only Specialize in Money Rituals - Notorious Lagos Fraud Kingpin, Okadigbo Finally Arrested (Photos)


Fraud suspect, Okadigbo
 
hehehhe.....The notorious leader of a four man gang and his accomplices have been arrested by the operatives of the Rapid Response Squad of the Lagos State Police Command for their involvement in fraudulent activities.
Men of Rapid Response Squad (RRS) of the Lagos State Police Command, over the weekend, arrested one Segun Akuntola who is alleged to be the kingpin of a syndicate that specializes in defrauding innocent citizens within the State.
 
The suspect, popularly known as Okadigbo, was apprehended by the Decoy Team of the squad in his shrine at Ijora over his involvement in fraud perpetrated by the 4-man gang under him.
 
The fraud, which was perpetrated in Ikorodu about a year ago was supervised by an accomplice, Christian Odokor, 43. The syndicate had duped a lady known as Joy (not real name) while in transit from Ikorodu towards Mile 12, where the victim had planned to buy some goods.
 
Members of the gang
 
Preliminary investigation conducted by the Decoy Team of RRS revealed that Okadigbo is the arrow head of several syndicates of fraudsters operating in different parts of Lagos State and some parts of Ogun State.
 
The members of his syndicate, it was learnt, report to his shrine regularly where their nefarious activities were always planned.
 
Until his arrest over the weekend, four of his accomplices earlier arrested by the operatives of RRS have given him out as their ring-leader.
 
The operatives were reported to have been on the lookout for him, but he has remained evasive through 2016.
 
Okadigbo while confessing to being a fraudster who operated by pretending to be herb seller in parts of the metropolis denied being the leader of the syndicate traced to him.
 
recovered fake dollars
 
According to him, “it is true they used my shrine and office. They bring their victims there but everybody operated on their own. They all assemble there but everybody managed their group…. Although, the fake dollar they use is mine but I don’t know anything about this job for which they have been arrested.

“I operated by selling herbs, but I market quick money rituals to people as well as herbs for people looking for children. I do spiritual bath for clients and that is how I defraud people and make my money,” he disclosed.
 
Christain Odokor, the leader of the Ikorodu fraudsters, in his confessional statement said, "We robbed her (Joy) about a year ago…. We took all she had from him including the sum of N300,000:00 and recharge cards of all networks worth N120,000:00 Okadigbo is our master whom most of us report to at least thrice in a week.

"All of us, about nine groups that I know report to him. We operated in different parts of the metropolis…. He is so powerful and fiery that no police dare to arrest him. Now, I was shocked seeing him here with us in your custody,” he added.
