The Lagos State Command has nabbed two fraudsters posing as prophets who attempted to extort a 64-year-old woman.

The incident happened on Friday, November 18, 2022. Reports held that the suspected fraudsters offered a ride to the woman and subsequently prophesied that she would die soon.

However, when they demanded that she gives them money to avert the death, the unidentified woman rushed to a nearby bank around 3.50 pm and tried to withdraw the sum when the cashier noticed her nervousness, according to reports.

While making the transaction, it was said that the woman kept getting constant calls.

The cashier asked the woman what the issue was, but she resisted initially, noting that it was forbidden to talk or she would die.

The bank immediately contacted the operatives of Ogudu Police Division, which led to the arrest of two suspects outside the bank who were waiting for the woman.

Benjamin Hundehin, Lagos Police spokesman, said the suspects were 45-year-old Uche Awaize and 35-year-old Osadebe Aigbe.

However, the third suspect escaped by scaling the fence. The police spokesman said efforts are on to arrest the third suspect.

He revealed that the suspects had extorted N900,000 from the victim before asking to go to the bank to make further withdrawals of N600,000.

Hundehin said:

“They saw the woman on the road and pretended to help her in their vehicle. On their way, they told her that they had prophecies that she would become successful sooner and that they were ready to assist her if she was ready to release her money.”
