Ikupoluyi reported that Bamido approached him and solicited for N90 million loan to execute a project with a promise to pay back in one month.
He was said to have been offered N50 million instead, which he guaranteed with three vehicles – a Mercedes-Benz E300 and Two Lexus LX570 SUV with original documents.
But unknown to the creditor, Bamido, the police said, was an alleged serial fraudster who specialised in getting vehicles from car agents, which he used to obtain loans.
