EFCC grills actress Oluwadarasimi Omoseyin for spraying and stepping on new naira notes
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) branch in Lagos says it has begun an investigation of Oluwadarasimi Omoseyin, the actress, for allegedly tampering with the redesigned naira notes.
The actress was arrested on Wednesday by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) for selling the new naira notes on social media.
Azuka Ogugua, the ICPC spokesperson, said the serial entrepreneur colluded with “key elements” in the financial sector to divert the new notes and sell them in the black market.
The EFCC, in a statement on Friday, said it has taken over the case from the ICPC.
The commission said the 31-year-old was arrested after the video of her spraying and stepping on the newly redesigned naira notes at a party surfaced online.
The anti-graft agency said the offense is contrary to Section 21 (5) of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Act, 2007.
“In the viral video, she was also seen flaunting wads of the new Naira notes,” the statement reads.
“The suspect was subsequently handed over to the EFCC on Thursday, February 2, 2023, for further investigations.
“Items recovered from her at the point of arrest include a Range Rover and iPhone mobile devices.
“The suspect will be charged to court once investigations have been concluded.”

Mohbad’s toxicology result ready as pathologist begins analysis
The toxicology test carried out on Mohbad, the late singer, to determine the actual cause of his death has been concluded.
Born Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, Mohbad died under mysterious circumstances on September 12 and was buried the next day.
On September 21, the body of the artiste was exhumed. An autopsy was carried out that same day after which the police announced that they were awaiting the results.
The toxicology test was conducted in the United States.
According to PUNCH, the final test results were sent to the state DNA and Forensic Centre last week and were handed over to the police.
The report is also said to have been forwarded to the medical pathologist who carried out the autopsy for analysis and interpretation.
The Lagos state government had called for a coroner’s inquest to determine the cause of Mohbad’s death following public outcry.
Testifying at the coroner’s inquest in March, Richard Somiari, the director of Lagos State DNA and Forensic Centre, said the autopsy result on Mohbad would be ready in less than a month.
However, Monisola Odumosu, head of the family’s legal counsel, said they would apply to the state high court to conduct a separate autopsy and toxicology test.
The lawyer said the family of Mohbad was worried about the process by which the autopsy was conducted.
Odumosu further claimed that no medical expert represented the family at the point the autopsy was done.

He’s a true man of God – Nkechi Blessing narrates her experience with Odumeje
Celebrities and influencers alike have never been strangers to seeking the face of God through powerful spiritual leaders and talking about his goodness in their lives publicly.
The latest of the stars that have shared her experience with a spiritual leader is the popular influencer, Nkechi Blessing.
In the latest episode of Inside Scoop with Uriel, the influencer doesn’t hold back on her encounter with Chukwuemeka Cyril Ohanaemere, the pastor popularly known as Odumeje, or on the internet Indaboski.
She told the host, Big Brother Naija star Uriel Oputa that at her first encounter with Odumeje she was shocked at the things he said about her, information that she said had never been public.
“The first time I had an encounter with Odumeje I was shocked to my bone marrow. The man will tell you everything about your life. He’s not just telling you, he’s giving you the solution,” Blessing said. “It is not normal things that are on the internet. He is a true man of God. I am saying it here categorically.”
When Uriel asked if he could heal people, Blessing said, “One hundred percent.”
When Uriel asked further why Odumeje has gotten a bad reputation on the internet as a fake pastor, Blessing said it has to do with the fact that he doesn’t speak English well.
“Because of the fact that he does not know how to communicate well in good English does not make him a fake pastor,” she said.
