VP Osinbajo's Bank Account Hacked By Nigerian Undergraduates, N8million Stolen by Nobody: 2:35pm On Oct 26, 2015
Policemen attached to the Special Anti- Robbery Squad, SARS, Ikeja, Lagos State, are currently investigating an alleged theft of N8million from Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo’s bank account by two undergraduate students of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra state.

According to news report, investigations so far have revealed how the undergraduate student hackers, Ebuka Orumba and Patrick Nwafor, allegedly stole millions from the Vice president’s bank account.

The accused had allegedly hacked into the account of Simmons Cooper Partner, a law firm said to belong to Osinbajo and allegedly stole N8m from it.

Nwafor, who is a final year student of Environmental Science and Orumba, a final year Computer Engineering student, both used fraudulent means to hack into the email of the Account Manager of the VP’s law firm, one Mr. Tunde Irukera.

Also, they allegedly sent a mail to the VP’s bank account manager on July 2nd, instructing the bank to transfer eight million naira from Simmions Cooper Bank account to three different bank accounts they opened for the fraud, which reports claimed was effectively done.

It was further gathered that the undergraduates allegedly connived with a tricycle rider, one Artor Kalu, to open a bank where three million naira was transferred to with the false name, Engineer Asukwo Okoro. The remaining amounts were said to have been transferred to two other bank accounts.

However, luck ran out on the undergraduates when their alleged gang member, Mr. Kalu went to one of the banks at Mushin to withdraw the N3m but was nabbed by detectives from SARS following a tip off from the bank.

The police subsequently arrested Kalu and following his statement, arrested Orumba but Nwafor reportedly escaped.

Following the investigation, reports say the police discovered that Kalu with the help of others got a fake Driver’s license which he used to open the Bank account.

The police has since reportedly charged Orumba and Kalu to court on a 5-count charge on conspiracy, stealing and fraud while efforts is on to arrest Nwafor whom the others allegedly claimed to be the mastermind of the fraud.
