The suspect was arrested following claims of a petitioner alleging that he paid the suspect the said sum for a piece of land located at Plot 677 Owo/Premier Layout, Ogui Nike community in Enugu state, only to find out that the land was being developed by unknown persons.

According to the petitioner, when he contacted the suspect regarding the development, he said he was informed that the said property was government owned. Subsequently, all efforts made by the petitioner to recover his money proved abortive as the suspect remained incommunicado.

Preliminary investigations by the EFCC showed that there is no layout bearing Plot 677 Owo/ Premier within the government acquired areas and that Owo/Premier layouts are two separate layouts.

The suspect will be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded.
