    EFCC Arrests Spiritualist for Alleged Sextortion

    Published on

     

    The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has arrested one Odigie Moses, a self-acclaimed spiritualist for alleged sextortion to the tune of $1,100 (One Thousand, One Hundred Dollars).

     

    He was arrested in Ekpoma, Edo State.

     

    The suspect, who misrepresented himself on Zelle, a social media platform as possessing spiritual healing powers, was contacted by his victim, an Indian woman, who was in need of spiritual intervention on some life-threatening challenges. The suspect subsequently deceived her into taking a naked spiritual bath, which he recorded live without her permission, and thereafter blackmailed her to send him money, else he would make the video public.

     

    Investigation by the EFCC revealed that the victim had to pay the sum of $1,100 to the suspect in order to prevail on him not to release her nudity to the public.

     

    He will be charged to court as soon as investigations are

    concluded.
