In a post on his Instagram page today, April 4, Ogbonna stated that the suspect was arrested and is currently being tried at the Igbosere Magistrate court in Lagos state.
“This is to remind the general public to be wary of anyone who is using my name and image on social media to defraud unsuspecting innocent women in a love relationship scam. One such case is the recent case of Kelvin Enofe, a 23-year-old boy who duped an American woman out of over $70,000, but as luck would have it, some private investigators came to the lady’s rescue by revealing Kelvin Enofe’s true identity. Following the investigation, the Nigerian police arrested Kelvin Enofe, investigated the matter, and he is currently on trial at the Igbosere Magistrate Court in Lagos, Nigeria. I’m doing it again today to inform the public that there are many more people on the Internet claiming to be IK Ogbonna. I will never ask for monetary favors from anyone on the Internet, and if you see someone doing so on social media, please report them to me on my verified social media handle.”
