The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has brought businessman Ashley Segun Oshin before the Lagos State High Court in connection with an alleged £122,000 investment fraud. The case was heard by Justice Ismail Ijelu on Thursday, with the prosecution ready to proceed, pending the court's scheduling. According to the charge, Oshin allegedly deceived two investors, Miss Oluwafemi Fajana and Mr Abiodun Adeogun, into parting with the funds under false pretenses between 2009 and 2010.
The commission claims Oshin promised a 40% annual return, knowing it was false. Oshin pleaded not guilty to the one-count charge of obtaining money by false pretence, which contravenes Section 1(3) of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud Related Offences Act, 2006. The judge ordered Oshin to be remanded in a correctional centre pending further proceedings, with a trial date set for November 18, 2026.
