A Nigerian man residing in Italy has been arrested after authorities discovered he had purchased a luxurious house worth €400,000 (approximately N624 million) despite not having any known source of income.
In a video shared on TikTok, the man, identified as oga.bonnyface, detailed the circumstances surrounding the arrest. He disclosed that the Nigerian man migrated to Italy in 2016 but had only been employed for a total of eight months since his arrival.
According to Oga Bonnyface, the man, whose identity has not yet been disclosed, allegedly acquired the expensive property without verifiable employment or legal financial backing, raising suspicions of possible financial crimes.
When questioned, he claimed the money came from his job. However, after reviewing his records, the police discovered he had only been employed for eight months since 2016.
Further investigations revealed that he was involved in internet fraud, locally known as “Yahoo”.
The narrator said, “He arrived in Italy in 2016, and after checking his employment records, authorities found that he had only worked for eight months.”
“He was arrested after buying a house worth €400,000. During interrogation, he insisted the money came from his job, but further checks exposed his fraudulent activities.”
