| The suspects Adegoke and Popoola |
The suspects, Micheal Raji, Johnson
Adegoke, Oladimeji Popoola, John Osaghae and Smart Imafidon, were
arrested by SFU operatives following petitions by the United States
Consulate, Lagos, and.....
the British Deputy High Commission.
Raji, a 32-year-old Higher National
Diploma holder was said to have presented a Nigerian passport containing
a forged UK visa during a US non-immigrant visa interview.
Raji allegedly confessed that the visa
was given to him by Popoola who had directed that Adegoke should
accompany him to the interview. Having made a part payment of N200,000
to Popoola for the visa, Raji was to pay the balance of N300,000 to
Adegoke after his interview at the US embassy.
The SFU Commissioner of Police, Mr. Tunde
Ogunsakin said, “Popoola, a forged document vendor, admitted that Raji
had approached him for his assistance to procure a US visa. He confessed
that he had contacted one Taiwo Akande at Oluwole, who had procured a
UK visa and Holland visa for N150,000 each.
“The visas which took a week to procure were delivered to Popoola at Molete, Ibadan, Oyo State.”
