A 24-year-old man has been arrested by the Airport Police Command over his involvement in a large-scale fraud running into N48.5 million.
The suspect, identified as Precious Onudhona, a native of Delta State, was taken into custody on February 2, 2026, at the airport while endeavoring to board a flight to Asaba. His apprehension was the result of actionable intelligence acquired by the Anti-Fraud Unit of the Command.
Mohamed Adola, the Airport police Public Relations Officer explained that the suspect employs such tactics as fake identity and deception in scamming their unsuspecting victims.
He said, “The suspect posed as “Travis Kevin,” a white American medical doctor, and fraudulently created a fake banking domain displaying fictitious account balances
“He reportedly used this platform to solicit funds from victims under the pretense of repaying them within a short period. The funds were claimed to be needed for feeding and medical supplies after he allegedly sustained injuries in the line of duty which he received through cryptocurrency.”
