A well known Facebook influencer, known as Ovaioza has been apprehended by the police for allegedly defrauding Nigerians on Facebook to the tune of N3 billion.
According to reports, Ovaioza got arrested in the Lugbe area of Abuja amid plans to flee the country. A source on Twitter with the handle @Gwenshuga, revealed that the embattled lady had bought houses in the United States with proceeds from her investment scam venture.
It’s also reported that she got married to a man who got her pregnant immediately she became famous.
While the story develops, a Twitter user @Justsociety4all, who appears to be familiar with the lady, noted that she was just a poor Nigerian in 2021, but suddenly became a billionaire in 2022.
@JustSociety4all wrote, “From Paris to Kuje prison. It’s Ova meeeen. Begging 5k on social media in 2021 to become billionaire in 2022. The car here👇 is not less than 22million. How this lady defrauded people should be studied in school.”
