One Desmond Okeh has been caught after pretending to be a Lance Corporal of the Nigerian Army.
The Nigerian Army apprehended Okeh, a resident of Anambra State, inside a bank in Port Harcourt.
In Port Harcourt on Tuesday, Lt.-Col. Ikedichi Iweha, the spokesman for the Nigerian Army’s 6 Division, made this statement while presenting the fraudulent soldier to reporters.
According to Iweha, Okeh was apprehended in response to a report from the intelligence community detailing his operations at a new generation bank in the city’s Government Reserve Area.
He said, “Desmond Okeh was arrested on July 6 at a new generation bank fully dressed in the number six military camouflage and in possession of a fake military identification card.
“The suspect was wearing the rank of Lance Corporal in Army camouflage with a fake duty number: 16N/75/2038 on his forged military identification card.
“The suspected impostor also had in his possession a fake pass leaflet at the time of his arrest.”
Iweha also urged members of the public to be wary of the antics of criminals who present themselves as military officers to swindle them of their hard-earned money and property.
