Elderly Nigerian woman's pension stolen by fraudsters in Lagos (photo)

 

Media personality and President/Founder of the Consumer Advocacy Foundation of Nigeria, Sola Salako-Ajulo, shared the story online today. She wrote

" Mrs Comfort Ashaye is a Pensioner. Her pension is paid into her Diamond Account (statement in pic). On March 28 2017, her total pension was withdrawn overnight by fraudsters. Total of N572k!
According to Mama, she went to her branch opposite Motorways Plaza Toll Gate area of Ikeja and the Branch manager shooed her away without letting her make a formal complaint.
She reported to a radio journalist Mr Joseph Folorunsho who tried to investigate but the same branch manager (her name is Ijeoma) threatened to lock him up and called security to harass him. As we speak, Mama Ashaye cannot explain what happened to her money.
This is the 3rd case of fraudsters wiping out consumer's funds via online or phone platforms from Diamond Bank.
Please help share Mama Ashaye's story until Diamond Bank investigates and refunds her pension".
