The Police in Bayelsa State have arrested a 36-year-
old man identified as Paul Yempe in Yenagoa, the
state capital, for claiming to be a correspondent of
the Cable News Network in the Niger Delta.
A source close to the police said the suspected fake
CNN reporter was arrested with identity cards of the
Rivers State Broadcasting Corporation and that of the
CNN.
It was learnt that Yempe was arrested in the office of
the state's Commissioner for Energy, Mr. Akio
Francis.
PUNCH Metro gathered that his apprehension was
made possible by the coincidental presence of the
Chairman of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, Bayelsa
State chapter, Mr. Tare Akono.
Sources within the NUJ and the SSS said the fake
reporter had allegedly swindled the Commissioner
for Information, Mr. Markson Fefegha, and the
Secretary to the State Government, Prof. Edmund
Allission-Oguru.
They said while Fefegha allegedly parted with a huge
sum of money to feature the activities of Governor
Seriake Dickson on the CNN, the SSG was alleged to
have kept the suspected fake reporter in a luxury
hotel in Yenagoa while perfecting a memo to raise
money to pay for the anticipated documentary on
CNN before the truth was revealed.
Reacting to the development, Akono said, "Attempts
by the fake journalist to affirm his genuineness led to
the discovery of a fake CNN ID card in his bag.
"He came to the office of the commissioner claiming
to have come for an interview as part of a
documentary he was working on for the state.
"When he came in, we asked him for his camera but
he said he was using his mobile phone as a recorder.
When we further interrogated him, we noticed he
was a fake reporter as he started shivering and
confessing he was not a CNN employee. That was
how we handed him over to the police."
The Police Public Relations Officer, Bayelsa State
Command, Mr. Alex Akhigbe, confirmed the arrest.
"We have arrested the man. The matter is under
investigation," Akhigbe said.
