Ghana Police nabs Nigerian impersonating Mitchel Majid for mother’s burial


Majid-Michel-11

One Kelvin Ogodogu has been arrested for impersonating Ghanaian actor, Majid Michel.

According to reports, the impostor was arrested while trying to dupe unsuspecting fans and solicit for money for the burial of the late actor’s mum.

He was arrested after defrauding a US-based lady of some dollars, supposedly meant to help in the preparations of the actor’s mum’s funeral.

Speaking to journalists, Majid revealed that he got wind of the situation when he met with the white lady, Ikay at an event in the United States. Ikay was said to have approached him and told him about their chats on the social media and also hinted on the monies she’s been sending to him.

According to Majid, the lady even said that he (Majid) informed her of his mother’s death and requested for an amount of $5,000, an amount she was willing to send.

Right there, he found out that another lady in Canada was scammed out of a staggering amount close to $30,000.

Through their investigations, the Ghanaian police nabbed the impostor while he was trying to receive the money through Western Union.

Narrating his side of the story at the Police Station, Kelvin claimed that the name Majid Michel is his nickname, and that when he was in Nigeria, he used to love the actor and his movies, to the extent that his friends started calling him Majid.

According to him, when he got to Ghana, he continued using the nickname until one day; Ikay initiated a conversation and they started chatting on the social media.

Sergeant Daniel Ziga of the La Police Station disclosed that the culprit will be arraigned before the court soon.
