EFCC Docks Pastor Over N1.2m Visa Scam
The Economicand Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Monday, June 27, 2016, arraigned
one Pastor Moses Oluwapelumi Iduye at the Oyo State High Court on a 10-count
charge of fraud.
The anti-graft
agency brought the embattled clergyman before Justice M. O. Ishola on charges
bordering on obtaining by false pretence, forgery and altering of document ,Nigerian
Eye reports.
Pastor Moses’
ordeal began after complaints by one Adeyemi Ronke Bola, accusing him of
collecting over N1.2 million from her, under the pretence that he would help
her secure travel documents, only for him to give her a forged airline ticket
and visa.
Embattled Pastor Moses asked to remain in jail.

The ‘Man of God’
pleaded not guilty to the charges preferred against him.
Having listened
to both counsels, Justice Ishola opposed the oral bail application of the
defence and asked that a formal bail application be filed.
He later
adjourned the case to 12th of July and ordered that the defendant be remanded
in prison custody pending the resolution of bail.
