Dedicate this to all Engineers on this page...

What are you dedicating ?

[url=Decryptor]OP[/url] thank you for this dissection of facts. This site needs more like you to counter all the fake news that hit frontpage daily.
Now you've done the needful I don't need to bother reading the story as you've already seperated fact from fiction.

The "NK" on that banner is LIKELY to be an insignia of the word "BANK" meaning that the photograph was taken in a bank.

You are right it's a bank.
But where do you think agencies deposit the money they seize? In a bank of course. And the suspect has to be there for the money to be counted in their presence, officers of the intercepting agency and bank officials.
The money is deposited in a bank pending the time it is transferred to the appropriate agency i.e. EFCC. A document is signed by the suspect and witnesses to that effect.
This usually happens if the money cannot be transferred on the same day it is intercepted.
And during the transfer, the money is counted again to ensure it's complete.

Gbam, great observations. but let keep our fingers n legs crossed! Lolz

I learnt a long time ago to always verify any news I read that has sahara reporters as it's source. I just wonder the style of journalism they practice....

Gonzo journalism

A story made headlines on Nairaland about the Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement Agency intercepting $2.1m here https://www.nairaland.com/2437137/ndlea-intercepts-man-moving-2.1million

Well, unfortunately the story is not true. Take a look at the points illustrated on the following pictures

Secondly, the counting machine on the table near the said Dollars is used mostly in banks and other institutions.
What in the world will a counting machine be used for in the NDLEA for? Counting marijuana leaves??


The composure and relaxed gait on the face of the "suspect"

You can see that the face of the man is so relaxed as he is absolutely under no pressure or tension at all. This man has the expression of someone who was just told to pose for a photo just for leisure

The said "suspect" has no name: As i noticed, no name was given to the suspect. At least, we all know that when criminals are apprehended, their names and where they come from is usually the first thing to grace the news.

NDLEA is not an agency that checkmates money laundering: Since when did the Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement become saddled with the responsibility to intercept cash instead of narcotics? Secondly, Sahara Reporters did not clearly state what intent the money was being transported by the suspect. Was it the proceeds of a drug sale or evidence from a drug bust?

Finally, no other REPUTABLE Newspaper Online carried the news: I ran a check and found out that the news was not carried by notable online tabloids like Vanguard, The Sun News Online, Punch Online etc but only Sahara and other blogging sites. This shows the authenticity of that story is questionable.

Sahara Reports is known to be serving fake headlines which have been swallowed ignorantly by gullible Nigerians. For them to post this kind of story can be damaging to this man and he could take serious legal action against them.

The story is absolutely false and should be disregarded!

Not at all but i have noticed that most stories posted by Sahara Reporters reeks nothing but falsehood and this is very wrong especially for a very popular media platform like theirs. Imagine what it could do to his reputation and even his safety?

What if the man is into Forex or he was sent by his employers to cash or deposit that money hence his presence in that bank and now this damaging report? It could put him in danger.

45-year old Lawrence Agbe (pictured above) was yesterday July 7th arrested by security officials at the Muritala mohammed international airport ikeja
Lagos while trying to transport fake dollar bills totaling $2.1 million from Lagos to Abuja. 

While speaking on the arrest, the Commissioner of Police for the command, Mr. Fredrick Lakanu, said during interrogation Lawrence said the fake dollar bills were owned by one Steve.
"After further interrogation, the suspect mentioned one Steve residing in Abuja as the owner of the said €1.25m. But Steve is at large.”CP Lakanu said
.So bro he has a name.I think u shld hv read this part too. I'm not saying ur observation is wrong but I'm giving u more facts frm the news to do more research.u may be wrong after all or right but dig deeper,becos he could hv been taken to a bank to use their machine to recount d money. Just do more reasearch n get bak to us

wake up man.......even AIT and Tabloids carried dis news. it is true jor.
