The suspects: Enabor, 27, Ehis, 25, Oviri, 42, and Ikoro, 24.
FOUR Nigerians have been arrested in Ghana for allegedly kidnapping an Australian, Dennis Ernest Fing.

Ghanaian Police force arrested the four men namely: Ose Zuwa Enabor, 27, Ejiron Ehis, 25, Ese Oviri, 42, and Godwin Ikoro, 24.

The leader of the group, Enabor Age, 29, is on the run.

Director-General, Criminal Investigations Department (CID), Prosper Agblor, also Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCOP), speaking at a news conference in Accra Tuesday said that on Saturday, the Police Anti-Armed Robbery squad had information that the Australian had been kidnapped and kept in a house at Baatsona on the Spintex road in Ghana’s capital Accra.

He disclosed that the victim, Mr. Fing is believed to have been lured into the country by the group five weeks ago, after being told that he (Fing) had inherited over $1 million from his late father and uncle who were a politician and a business magnate respectively.

He said when Mr Fing arrived in the country on August 24; the suspects detained him in the house and extorted over $100,000 from him under the pretext of preparing for him court documents, registration and certification from government agencies to enable him to take possession of his inheritance.

In another development, a Ghanaian news media gathered that Ghana’s Documentation and Visa Fraud Unit of the CID, has arrested a Turkish, Atila Inac, alias Mohammed for allegedly producing fake visas for prospective travellers.

He has allegedly defrauded David Nii Akeka Buxto of GH¢10,000 which was part of GH¢14,000 that he had charged to secure him an American Visa.

Mr. Agblor said a check at the US Embassy revealed that the visa was fake, using the foil number-(67970278) issued to a former Deputy Minister of Finance.

Investigations have also revealed that the suspect is engaged in the production of forged credit cards.

He said the unit also arrested one Francis George Quarshie for allegedly duping people he had promised to assist to acquire US visa lottery. He charged fees ranging between $2,000 and $8,000.

A search conducted in Quarshie's room revealed large quantities of American lottery forms and a laptop, with various transactions he had made with other people.

Abeg make dem verify their nationality well well,cus some other african nationals are fond of claiming to be nigerians when cought in such dastard act. They must have understand the terrain in ghana very well,for them to have smuggled their victim probably from nigeria to ghana. Maybe ghanians too are realising how lucrative the trade is;and besides,those names sounds ashanti's .

Those names all seem to emanate from the old BENDEL state; looks like they started from 419 and entered kidnapping as a by product.
