Naval captain accused of collecting bribe for investigation

A businessman, Olugbemiga Ayeni, has accused a naval officer attached to the Western Naval Command in Apapa, Lagos State, of collecting ‘a mobilisation fee’ of N100,000 to investigate a case of alleged threat to his life by one Aderemi.

Ayeni alleged that he gave the money to the officer, identified simply as Captain Olubiyi, through a friend, Dayo, upon the captain’s demand.

He claimed that Olubiyi had collected the sum to investigate the alleged threat by Aderemi, who is also a naval officer, and a breach of contract by Aderemi’s wife.

The businessman said the wife, Mrs. Titilayo Adesida, had convinced him to buy three cars from a company by paying in installment. He said he agreed to the deal without enquiring about the company because of the trust he had in her.

 However, the 46-year-old man realised that he had been defrauded when the cars were not delivered on the agreed date after he had allegedly paid N2.7m.
