The Nigerian Navy yesterday handed over one Simon Musa, a deputy Bank Manager to the Nigeria Police, for impersonating.
The bank manager, who was handed over to the police for prosecution was said to have impersonated an unknown Rear Admiral Musa.
Musa, 37, an indigene of Benue State and a staff of Aso Savings and Loans Limited, Victoria Island, Lagos was paraded before newsmen in Mogadishu Barracks, Abuja.
The Director of Naval Information, Commodore Aliyu Kabiru, who paraded the suspect said he was arrested at the federal Mortgage Bank Head of Office, behind Ceddi Plaza in the Central business District of Abuja after receiving a marked money of the sum of N1.5 million.
“Preliminary investigations revealed that Mr. Simon Musa, during his interview for employment claimed that he was the brother to one Admiral Musa in the Nigerian Navy. This was to influence his employment, as well as to give the impression that he would be able to source for a deposit of N2 billion from the Nigerian Navy through the Admiral for the mortgage bank.
“Accordingly, the suspect was employed as the Deputy Manager of the Victoria Island Branch of the bank on 27 May 2013, which falls under one Mr Francis Uzor, the regional manager for Aso Savings and Loans, South-South and South West Regions.
Due to the intense pressure on him to meet up with the target given to him, the suspect often disguised as Admiral Musa on phone when calling Mr Ifeanyi Uzor to assure him of the N2 billion deposit.
“When it became apparent that he would not meet the target, the suspect, who posed as Admiral Musa, demanded for a sum of N1.5 million from the regional manager, Uzor, to enable him effect
repairs on his acclaimed burnt house before he would facilitate the deposit of the N2 billion from the Nigerian Navy”.
