Fake 'Governor Ambode' Almost Took N50m from Lagos State Government Account

Desperation to enjoy money you can't work for is pushing folks to the extreme. These artisans – Rilwanu Jamiu and Balogun Oyewole – have been nabbed for cloning the mobile line of the Lagos Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, and attempting to withdraw N50m from the state government’s account.

It was gathered that the suspects, who claimed to be cocoa dealers, allegedly attempted to perfect a N50m transfer through the mobile line of the governor, which they had cloned but were caught.

They have been arraigned and remanded in prison.
