Operatives of the Benin Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have arrested a football agency, Osagie Destiny Etinosa, for alleged N11 million fraud.
The suspect, who was arrested through an open source intelligence, had been parading himself on Instagram account @ officialking _ etto as a football agent who specialises in linking footballers with foreign clubs for trials and recruitment.
In one instant case, Etinosa allegedly collected the sum of N11 million from one Samuel Beke Ohazuruike with the promise of securing trials for him in Romanian and Bulgarian clubs, which never materialised.
