EFCC arrests Crime Alert boss over alleged N128m investment scam in Ibadan

The Ibadan Zonal Office of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested 43-year-old Amos Olugbenga Olaniyan for allegedly defrauding people of over N128 million in a fraudulent investment scheme.

Olaniyan was arrested following series of petitions by victims, according to EFCC’s Head of Media and Publicity, Wilson Uwujaren, in a statement issued on Friday, May 28, 2021.

The petitioners had alleged that Olaniyan, through his company, DHIL Nigeria Limited, popularly known as Crime Alert Security Network Investment, persuaded them to invest in a network scheme which offered a monthly 30 percent returns on investment.

According to some of the victims, they were persuaded to invest after listening to the suspect’s weekly radio programme.

“However, after investing their monies, they neither received the promised interest nor get a refund of their capital since 2020.

Exasperated, they petitioned the EFCC. The Commission, in the course of investigation, discovered that the suspect operated a classic Ponzi scheme and had defrauded hundreds of people, some of whom reported orally to the Commission. Indeed, petitions are still pouring into the Commission on a daily basis from his alleged victims.

“Furthermore, it was discovered that DHIL Nigeria Limited, the vehicle used by Amos to scam his victims, was not registered with the Central Bank of Nigeria as a financial institution,” Uwujaren revealed.

Recovered from the suspect were five exotic cars, three landed property and documents found to be incriminating.

Uwujaren further said: “He will be charged to court as soon as the investigation is concluded.”
