EFCC arraigns Omokoh Jesse, the guy who scammed Australian grandma

Omokoh Orowo Jesse, the Nigerian guy who was arrested for allegedly scamming 67year old Australian grandmother, Jette Jacobs of $90,000, who was later found dead in her hotel in South Africa, was today June 4th arraigned before an Oyo State High Court, Ibadan, on a 9-count charge bordering on conspiracy and obtaining money by false pretense.

Jette, who had met Jesse on an online dating site, was found dead in her hotel room in February 2013 five days after meeting with Jesse. Jesse disappeared after her death but was caught almost a year after in Lagos in a raid (Read here). Jesse is currently not being held for her death. Continue...



Count one of the charge against Jesse reads: “Omokoh Orowo Jesse, Ifeanyi Oro (still at large), Emojewe (still at large) and David (still at large) sometime in 2012 at Ibadan within the Ibadan Judicial Division with intent to defraud conspired to obtain the sum of $70,000 from one Jette Jacobs, a 67-year-old Australian woman under the false pretense that the money represents payment for marriage engagement processes between you and her in Nigeria and which pretense you knew was false”.
  
Jesse pleaded not guilty to all nine charges read against him. The judge declined bail and Jesse was remanded at the Agodi Prison until July 10 2014 for the next hearing.

  20. This don't make no sense. Why the fuck are the nigerian stupid police arresting this boy for? Did he commit any crime in nigeria. If he lied and the woman gave him money is not was than our politicians still billions of our money. What d fuck is going on here. Nigerian police are d most stupid cowards ever. Americans will never arrest their citizen cus he defrauds a nigerian or any other country. Infact no decent country does shit like that unless he's a terrorist which naija police are too scared to arrest. Assholes

  31. Form your own agency to catch ministers if that's what it takes for you to stop scamming. Until then, remember the EFCC comes for you first if you're an online thief.
