“One of such is the recent case of one Kelvin Enofe, a 23 years old boy who duped an American woman of over 70 thousand US dollars, but as God would have it, some private investigators came to the rescue of the lady by revealing the true identity of Kelvin Enofe.

“Consequent upon the said investigation, the Nigerian police went for Kelvin Enofe’s arrest, investigated the matter, and he is currently standing trial at the Igbosere Magistrate Court in Lagos Nigeria.”

The actor added that there are more people impersonating him.

He emphasised that he would “never ask for monetary favours online”.

“I do this today again to let the general public know that there are a lot more other persons claiming to be IK Ogbonna on the Internet,” Ogbonna wrote.

“I will never ask for monetary favour from anyone on the Internet and if you see such on social media, please report such person or persons to me on my verified social media handle.

“Great job from Spaurell Private Investigators Ltd and the Nigeria police.”
