Expelled student dupes victim with fake appointment letter
An expelled student, Nasiru Abba has been arrested for allegedly attempting to dupe unsuspecting victims with fake employment letters.
Abba was nabbed by operatives of the Nigeria Security Civil Defense Corps (NSCDC).
He was said to have been expelled from the School of Nursing Jahun in the state.
NSCDC spokesperson in Jigawa, Adamu Shehu, said: “The suspect’s family members told NSCDC that they had been warning him about his dubious characters; that one day he will be arrested and face the wrath of the law.”
Abba was accused of requesting a sum of N120,000 from his victim for issuance of appointment letter of NSCDC.
“Already the sum of N1,700 was collected as fee for employment form by the suspect,” Shehu further said.
“The father of the victim, an okada rider, became suspicious and reported the matter to a nearest NSCDC office in the state and the suspect was lured to come with appointment letter and collect his money. That was how he was arrested by our men.”
