The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested three suspects, namely: Dennis Baba Wdony, Wycliffe Midala and Samuel Kayode Melaye for allegedly parading themselves as military officers and using the office of the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) to defraud unsuspecting members of the public through fake contract awards .
The Guardian learnt that the suspects operated a three-man syndicate, which advertised fake bids for contracts in the office of the CDS.
Their arrest followed multiple petitions received by the commission in respect of their fraudulent activities.
In one of the petitions, a victim claimed a loss of N21 million to their antics.
The anti-graft agency said they will be charged to court upon conclusion of investigations.
