A 41-year-old clearing agent, Jude Aigbokhaode, has been arrested by the Lagos State Police for allegedly defrauding a businesswoman, Funmilayo Akinola, of N4.2 million in a container scam.

Aigbokhaode, based at the Apapa port, is accused of deceiving Akinola by promising to clear a container of apple juice, only to abscond with the large sum of money meant for the transaction. According to the police, the suspect approached Akinola, assuring her of his expertise in clearing the container and subsequently collected the N4.2 million.

However, after receiving the payment, Aigbokhaode allegedly switched off his phones and went into hiding, leaving the businesswoman unable to reach him.

Following a detailed investigation by the police, led by ASP Rekcatu Yusuf, Aigbokhaode was tracked down and arrested at a hideout in Lagos. The incident took place on July 8, 2023, at Tin Can Island Port, Apapa.

Aigbokhaode has been charged with obtaining money under false pretenses and stealing. Despite his arrest, he pleaded not guilty to the charges when arraigned before the Tinubu Magistrate’s Court.

Chief Magistrate K.K. Awoyinka granted the suspect N1 million bail, with two sureties in like sum. The case has been adjourned to December 29, 2024, and Aigbokhaode is to remain in detention at the Ikoyi correctional facility until the bail conditions are met.
