A dream Asokoro property deal turns into a massive fraud case as EFCC moves in.
The EFCC has arrested an Abuja-based property agent, Hajia Adama Ahmed Adamu, over an alleged N288 million real estate scam linked to a house in Asokoro.
According to the anti-graft agency, the suspect reportedly collected the money from a buyer, Alhaji Tanko Yawale, claiming she would secure a property on Haile Selassie Street. Trouble started when she failed to provide valid ownership documents and allegedly became evasive after receiving the payment.
Investigators say she ignored several EFCC invitation letters before operatives tracked and arrested her on March 24 at Brains and Hammers City in Life Camp, Abuja. She is expected to face court once investigations are completed.
The EFCC also warned Nigerians to always verify property documents before sealing real estate deals.
