       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Over 150 Ikorodu residents seeking accommodation at Surulere and
       Coker areas of Lagos State have been allegedly defrauded by a
       property developer identified as Kabiru Adeyemi , The Nation
       reports
       The residents, claimed that the total amount paid the said
       Adeyemi amounted to about N50million, also said they resorted to
       leaving Ikorodu following the spate of kidnappings and killings
       by the now infamous Badoo cult group.
       Further investigations revealed that the victims, comprising
       about 100 families, had paid the developer for alternative
       accommodations at Iponri, Aguda, Coker and Orile.
       Most of the victims including widows, it was gathered, were
       squatting with relatives in Lagos after abandoning their homes
       at Ikorodu.
       Adeyemi alledgedly charged some of the victims N240,000 per year
       for a room and parlour apartment, but when they went to take
       possession of their respective apartments, they discovered
       people were already in them.
       Exasperated by the development, some of the victims were said to
       have filed a complaint at the Force Criminal Investigation and
       Intelligence Department (FCIID), Alagbon, which led to Adeyemi’s
       arrest.
       The victim’s were said to have protested to the International
       Centre for Human Rights, Non Violence and Safety (ICHR) office,
       Alaka Estate, Iponri, lamenting that they were stranded.
       A victim, Linus Ejiofor said he fled Ikorodu in May and has been
       squatting with a relative.
       He said he paid N200,000 for a self-contained and promised to
       balance N150,000 when he got the key, but another person had
       occupied.
       Ejiofor also lamented that he introduced a lot of people from
       Ikorodu to the developer, not knowing it was a scam.
       Narrating her ordeal, one Mrs. Johnson said:
       “I fled my house in Ikorodu following incessant attacks from
       Badoo. I contacted an agent to help me get a place and he took
       me to a house undergoing renovation at Mashalasi Street, Iponri.
       I saw a woman, Mrs Fumilayo and a man called JJ.
       “Mrs. Fumilayo told me that she and her husband were the
       developers renovating the house. My agent and I inquired about a
       mini flat and she said it was N250 for one year. She told me to
       make payment into her bank account which I did. I brought the
       teller to her and was issued a receipt.
