32-year-old Nigerian man married to 50-year-old Russian woman dies of heart attack

Russian investigators have launched an investigation into the death of 32-year-old Nigerian man identified as Gabriel Segun Ajayi who reportedly died of heart attack in a club.

The 32-year-old Nigerian man who is married to a 50-year-old Russian woman, died of a massive heart attack at a dance club last Friday night, October 12, in the city of Cherepovets, about 500 km north of Moscow, and according to investigators, the cause of death would be determined after a forensic examination.

While the Nigerian embassy in Moscow has raised an alarm over the death of the Nigerian national, it was gathered that the couple captured the attention of Russian daytime talk shows with their romance, due both to the 18 year age difference between them and the unusual story of a reported Nigerian prince agreeing to move to rural Russia to be with his wife.

According to the local news agency IMA Cherepovets, the two got to know each other through an online dating service and initially had to use Google Translate to break through the language barrier. Gabriel reportedly had difficulties with getting a Russian visa, so their first chance to see each other in person came in 2013, when Natalia travelled to Nigeria to meet the man’s family. Natalia’s 22-year-old eldest son was also not sure at first after his mom met the Nigerian man in 2012, however he settled in after he turned out to be real and in 2017, Natalia gave birth to twin boys.

Shortly after he arrived Russia, the Nigerian man who began learning the language also started a job as a tractor driver and local IT specialist. Natalyia was devastated by the news of her husband’s death.

“Gabriel had a massive heart attack, he collapsed and died. He wasn’t on any medications. My husband didn’t have any complaints about his heart. I was informed two hours after it happened…Our children are just babies –they are just a year old, they don’t understand anything yet,” she said.

The burial arrangement of Ajayi has been made, and it was gathered that only his mother who lives with the rest of the family in a nearby village will be attending, as the rest of Ajayi’s family can’t attend the funeral due to the distance and difficulties in obtaining a visa on such a short notice, according to local media.

U.K jails Nigerian lawyer and prince for £1.8m fraud

A 53-year-old Nigerian lawyer cum Prince, Olanrewaju Bolaji Otukoya, has bagged a 5-year jail term in the U.K  over his involvement in a £1.8m fraud.

The Nigerian lawyer who is the son of King J.B. Otukoya, Fiwagbade I, the Oligun of Ilugun , Ogun State, headed the Luton-based gang that committed £1.8m fraud by intercepting cheques in the post that were intended for local businesses. He failed to answer his police bail in July 2014 and absconded to Nigeria.

It was gathered that the convict fled to Nigeria after he skipped bail, was sentenced at the Old Bailey, on Friday, October 12, following an operation led by the Dedicated Card and Payment Crime Unit (DCPCU). Otukoya who has several previous convictions for fraud, was traced and extradited back to the UK after an approval by a Nigerian court in April, 2018.

The Nigerian lawyer who pleaded guilty to conspiracy to defraud users of Royal Mail Postal Services, recruited two other members of the gang, Moshin Abbas and Anjam Shah who abused their positions as workers at a Royal Mail sorting office by stealing post containing cheques destined for local companies

The gang intercepted cheques, worth over £1.8 million in total, which were then paid into business bank accounts that were set up and controlled by Otukoya, using similar names as the target company. Abbas and Shah were sentenced in 2016 to four years and five year and three months imprisonment respectively.
