The operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have arrested three suspects for allegedly impersonating Evangelist Chukwuebuka Obi of Zion Prayer Movement Outreach on social media platforms to defraud some members of the church and other people.
The suspects – Odion Victor, Amos Godwin, and Ayomide Michael – were arrested by the Benin Zonal Directorate of the EFCC.

The anti- graft agency, in a statement issued by its spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, on Saturday, July 6, 2024, disclosed that the suspects were apprehended following credible intelligence that uncovered how they allegedly cloned the social media accounts of Obi and deceived many of his church members to give money towards treatment of some purported sick people, sow seeds for spiritual breakthrough, or for special prayers, with the money paid into the bank accounts of the fraudsters.
“The suspects will be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded,” Oyewale added.
