The SFU alleged in a statement on
Wednesday that the suspect and her son, Samson, obtained money from the
victim by false representation.
The Commissioner of Police for the
command, Tunde Ogunsakin, said, “The victim alleged that in September
2011, the suspects conspired and sold a parcel of land at Plot 24 Block 4
situated at Admiralty Way, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos for N130m which he paid
into the first suspect’s account with the Union Bank of Nigeria Plc.
He further stated that after payment,
he requested title document and Alhaja Ojikutu procured an affidavit of
support to back her fraudulent claim, a police crime extract and a
publication in a newspaper all purporting to loss of the original
documents of title to the land.
The victim believed her because of her
personality as the former Deputy Governor of Lagos State.
“The bubble burst when the victim
commenced development of the land and was on the verge of completion
when the bona fide owner of the land surfaced and indeed it was
discovered that the land the suspect sold did not belong to her. She
actually sold Plot 23 Block 4 while Plot 24 Block 4 already has a
property on it.”
According to police investigation, the
land Ojikutu sold, did not belong to her, but to one Mr. Afolabi. It
was also discovered that the Plot 24 Block 4, which actually belonged to
Alhaja Ojikutu’s late husband, Samson Ojikutu (senior), was sold by him
in 1995 and the suspect was a life witness and appended her signature
to the sale of the land.
Ogunsakin said the suspect further
perpetrated the crime by alleging that the original Certificate of
Occupancy to the property was missing and swore an affidavit which
enabled her to obtain a police report and memorandum of loss. She also
put up an advert in newspapers that the original C of O was lost,
whereas the original C of O was with the Hallmark Homes, the buyer of
the property.
He said, “The suspect, who is a
67-year-old retiree from Lagos Island, allegedly connived with her son,
Samson, who is currently in the United States to commit the fraud. The
suspect and her son were parties to the sale of the land and both signed
the agreement given to the complainant and obtained the sum of N130m
from him.
“She admitted committing the crime but
confessed that it was a genuine mistake of plot identification. She
refunded the sum of N50m to the complainant and promised to refund the
balance as soon as she disposed of her two properties she put up for
sale. She also confessed that she had invested the victim’s money in
her business.
“She equally made an undertaking and
payment plan which was drawn from September, 2012 and was to terminate
by November 2012, but she defaulted.”
Ogunsakin stated that the suspect was
not willing to abide by the terms of payment and had jumped bail. He
added that all attempts to contact her had proved abortive.
“The SFU declares Alhaja Ojikutu wanted.
Anybody with useful information regarding her whereabouts should report
to the Commissioner of Police, Special Fraud Unit, 13 Milverton Road,
Ikoyi,” he said.

ReplyDeleteSMH! Greed runs deep in the blood of most of our politicians, both past and present!
ReplyDeleteI know this is off topic, but I just need to put this out there. Since when did the Nigerian customs officers receive the right to shoot at will? I ask because this will be the fourth time within two weeks that the officers along the idiroko road of Ogun state have killed people with the indiscriminate use of their weapons.
ReplyDeleteAs I type this, there's a riot going on @ Ilase community cos one of the customs officers shot a woman on her way to the market. D woman has two little kids who have been made orphans as a result of their stupidity. I feel so bad... Cos instead of showing remorse, they have invited soldiers to oppress the crowd. I can't snap anything cos I don't want to get beat up. But this has got to stop.
Nah wao! So this people still don't know that a good name is better than money? Hmmm..
ReplyDeletethere might be some mix up somewhere I bet. this is too much yo!!!
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing like mix up my brother. This is a display of high level of greed. If at 67 she is still doing this imagine what happens to her younger generation. I pity this nation. This is also to show you that a thief is always a thief whether corporate, political or common. Imagine having this type in leadership position when she hasn't led herself and her home properly. Linda, plz publish Val

mshew!
Stealing dey ur blood ni?????
ReplyDeleteLol..livescam
ReplyDeletena wa o! madam polithiefcian,you no steal enough when u dey for power?
ReplyDeleteLmao@polithiefcian
DeleteI think it is in her character because after 'making' money (that is what it is as almost all naija politicians do not go for service) as deputy governor; and her direct/indirect connection with a distressed bank in those years gone by (you know what I mean), she was not satisfied but to turned to a fraudster, then you will have no choice than to see reason that she is a serial thief. SFU will do good to give her 'tally number in their 'banking hall' to enable some mosquitoes seek 'redress'.
ReplyDeleteSee her ugly face this case should nt end here ooh it should be seen to the last
ReplyDeleteMadam, pls try show face make u do anoda settlement plan wt man. Abi u no dey shame?
ReplyDeleteTayz
Ole gbe...Ole gba. Where did d personself get all that money from? State pension! Eh. They r all theives. N130M for parcel of land in a country where millions r starving. Lord have mercy
ReplyDeleteIf U are too broke to comprehend then pass
DeletePple buy properties worth billions of naira!
And some pple are blessed not every wealthy person is a thief.
@ Queen Bee, I think the person's comment had more to do with the morality of spending that much on a property in a country where a majority of the ppl can't imagine that kinda wealth. Legit money or not, I think Nigerians have become desensitized to the poverty ard them #my2kobo
DeleteIn Nigeria being a politician is a full time job and that is what is killing these people because after their tenure they are jobless like every other Nigerian.. And start shady deals just to keep up the fake lives they live.
ReplyDeleteHehehehehehehehe!
ReplyDeleteshe must vomit all d money cos she has no self pride.........
ReplyDeleteshe must vomit all d money cos she has no self pride.........

ReplyDeleteLinda who paid U to put this story up?? The person being owed 130 mil?? Just asking o cos its seems like "someone" is trying to shame this lady into paying
ReplyDeleteThis story was on the front page of punch newspaper as at thursday. Anonymous June 21 @4:49pm, she wasn't paid to put it up. It's really obvious that you don't read well
ReplyDeleteAnyway, the old lady is tooooo greedy. She should be the one begging her son to stop such things instead of asking him to join her in the scam
I reject such for my family and all LIBers so I would type God forbid in five languages
Yoruba: Olorun maje
Igbo: Tufi akwa
Chinese: 上帝保佑

French: Dieu ne plaise
Linda, post my comment o. I'm your faithful boo of life
