I think a person should be arrested and made to face the law.
Though it’s unfortunate that Nigeria has no law
There may be a mix-up some where. It may be someone is impersonating him.nI say this because this guy from his rating,is supposed to be doing well.
Uti have to come out in public and defend himself so that people will believe him
Uti might not be aware of what is going on Instagram.so i think the rightful authority to swing into action and bring the perpetrators to book.i hope It I is innocent of this?
Nigeria are gradually scaming people too much just spoiling our image and we are gradually losing intergrity
For Mei think is a mixed upsome where.i see these as a setup.cos someone out there is looking forward to tarnish his reputation as well.. everything can’t be concluded until we hear from him also because it’s look somehow
Bad people everywhere spoiling people’s image ,don’t think he’s the one though you can not trust anybody.
nigeria don suffer oh
why is it that we seldom get popular because of corrupt practices
abeg change oh
If that’s true then you should report him, and let the right authority take action about it. That’s fraud and it should not be allowed.

Why some useless people are like this because all this can spoil someone name and image on what you don’t know
To me everybody is hustling the well to do and the poor but, we have genuine hustle and fake one, be fake one day you must be cut.
No one else is to be trust worthy again for a celebrity to be involved in scamming stuff
