Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, have arrested a fake land vendor, Nwobo Williams Chibuike in Abuja.

Investigations showed that, Chibuike, self-styled Managing Director of C&C Reality & Construction Limited, Dream-Krest Homes and Properties Limited and Dan Faith Shelters Limited, was marketing fictitious and non-existing landed properties in several locations in the FCT and getting his victims to make payments ranging from N60,000,000( Sixty Million Naira), N24,000, 000( Twenty- Four Million Naira), N11,000,000( Eleven Million Naira) to N3, 500, 000( Three Million Five Hundred Naira) in locations such as Karsana, Pyakasa, Jikwoyi , Kurudu, Katampe Extension, Guzape 2, Kuje and other locations in the FCT.
The Commission’s enquiries from the Federal Capital Development Authority, FCDA, showed that none of the locations being marketed and sold by Chibuike and his agents are real.
The suspect will be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded.
The public is hereby alerted to be wary of such vendors, especially itinerant land marketers around the FCT and be appropriately guided.
