The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has arrested one Tonwerigha Oyintonbra Tombrown for allegedly duping an Irish businesswoman, Izabela Glogowska to the tune of €53,000 (equivalent of N11.6million) in an Internet scam.

According to a statement by the spokesperson of the antigraft agency, Wilson Uwajaren, the Irish woman Glogowska alleged that Tombrown who posed as a prominent online trader Michael Freeman, tricked her into sending him €1,000 via Western Union/Money gram as payment for a business deal.

She added that he later pretended to be one Ben Andrews demanding for an additional €10,000 claiming that there was a policy change. The same Andrews advised her to send the money to Tombrown in Nigeria, who ended up diverting the money to a fake account.

Efforts to recover her money proved abortive, hence she petitioned the EFCC. The suspect would be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded.

Niger-Delta Militants Bomb Pipeline In Under Water Attack.....

Buhari has vowed to end over-priced state contracts and crude theft. But in the Delta many ex-fighters see the hunt for Tompolo as part of a campaign by mainly Muslim northerners, like the president, against the Christian south. The government denies any such motive.

The swampland’s oil provides 70 percent of state income but, like much of the rest of Nigeria, the region has never seen much development. Its roads are pot-holed and villages polluted from oil spills.

“Many angry young men still support the militants because the government is not addressing their grievances,” said Alagoa Morris, an environmental activist in the Delta. “They work for anyone who supports them.”

TROOPS Authorities have responded by sending troops to protect oil facilities, a move residents say might fuel tensions as villagers will likely see them as invaders sent by Buhari. “The militarization of the Delta makes it worse,” said Morris. “People see that the government is only interested in the oil production, not their grievances.”

A security official said Tompolo’s men were probably behind the sub-sea attack. Activists say it could have been the work of other ex-rebels frustrated about the region’s poverty. Tompolo has disappeared from public view since the arrest warrant was issued, and his spokesman, Paul Bebenimibo, could not be reached for comment.

He had links to the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND), one of the most powerful militant groups, which attacked oil facilities and kidnapped expatriate workers.

A previously unknown group called the Niger Delta Avengers has claimed responsibility, warning Buhari of more trouble unless he fulfils a long list of demands such as starting development and cleaning up polluted villages. Reuters was unable to contact the group or verify its statement. In total, ten oil and gas pipelines or other facilities have been attacked in the Delta since the start of the year, security experts say.

DELTA Tension has been building in the Delta since Buhari defeated president Goodluck Jonathan, a Christian southerner from the region, in presidential polls a year ago.

The government has extended the amnesty but vowed to shift the focus to job training and away from cash payments, which in the past were collected by “generals” for their “boys”. So far, the attacks have not been as severe as the previous insurgency. But diplomats worry that Delta activists are teaming up with secessionists in the southeast, where Ibgo people who proclaimed an independent state called Biafra sparked a 1967-70 civil war in which more than a million people died. In the Avengers statement, the group demanded the release of a pro-Biafra leader jailed since October.

On Thursday, groups of former militant leaders denounced the pipeline attacks but also urged Buhari to expand the amnesty to “some of our brothers who are still in the creeks” – still a hideout for militants, pirates and kidnappers. They also told Buhari the amnesty should be extended to 2019 to give young men time to receive job training. The government has said it wants to set up vocational centers to train up to 10,000 people annually. But little has happened as the oil price slump has undermined spending plans.
