A close witness to the accused said:

“Instead of him to have drawn the attention of the bank that mistakenly transferred the huge fund to his account, he went on speeding spending.

“Rafiu bought houses and cars and sponsored people to the lesser Hajj. Although he was generous to several people in the community, some residents were surprised about his sudden wealth as a POS operator.”

The arrest has been confirmed by Ajayi Okansanmi (SP), the Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO who stated that the case has been transferred to authorities in Lagos.

He said:

“We can confirm the incident but it is the Lagos Unit that is currently investigating the matter as it has been transferred to them.”
