Two suspected Nigerian fraudsters impersonate Kenya’s First Lady
Two Nigerian men have landed in trouble for allegedly impersonating Kenya’s First Lady, Margaret Kenyatta to dupe unsuspecting victims on Facebook.
The suspects, Timothy Ogba Ebakole and Alex Olusegun Adebayo, were also accused of impersonating some top leaders in Kenya in a bid to defraud Kenyan citizens.
Kilifi Directorate of Criminal Investigations Officer, Christopher Chesoli, said his team tracked the two suspects to Kayole in Nairobi.
“We believe that they have received millions of shillings from the public. We took them to court on Friday but asked for another seven days to have them so that we can continue with the investigations,” Chesoli said.
Chesoli added that their probe revealed that they had also impersonated Kilifi Senator Steward Madzayo and his Bomet counterpart Christopher Langat.
