Olawale Falola |
A fake lawyer, Olawale Falola, said he
made N6m from his victims who he promised to help secure jobs at the
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation.
Falola, who was nabbed by the.....
Oyo State
Police Command during a stop-and-search in Ibadan recently, claimed to
be a dropout of a university in Osun State, adding that he had deceived
more than 100 people with his fake identity.
It was gathered that after seeing a
sticker belonging to the Nigeria Bar Association on his windscreen, the
police asked him about his identity, but he failed to substantiate his
claim of being a lawyer.
He said, “I paraded myself as a lawyer
and I have taken money from more than 100 people. I promised to get jobs
for them at NNPC and security organisations. I have made up to N4m from
the practice out of which I bought a Toyota Corolla car. I lived in
Osogbo. I came to Ibadan to visit my family when I was arrested by the
police.”
The car, valued at N2m, has a number plate, FST 298 AY.
The Commissioner of Police in the state,
Leye Oyebade, said Falola’s car had been impounded and that the suspect
would be charged to court as soon as investigations into his activities
were concluded.
